Failure by the international community to make substantive progress
in reducing CO2 emissions, coupled with recent evidence of
accelerating climate change, has brought increasing urgency to the
search for additional remediation approaches. This book presents a
selection of state-of-the-art geoengineering methods for
deliberately reducing the effects of anthropogenic climate change,
either by actively removing greenhouse gases from the atmosphere or
by decreasing the amount of sunlight absorbed at the Earth's
surface. These methods contrast with more conventional mitigation
approaches which focus on reducing emissions of greenhouse gases,
especially carbon dioxide. Geoengineering technologies could become
a key tool to be used in conjunction with emissions reduction to
limit the magnitude of climate change. Featuring authoritative,
peer-reviewed entries from the Encyclopedia of Sustainability
Science and Technology, this book presents a wide range of climate
change remediation technologies.
