After studying the prospect of Stratospheric Aerosol Injection (SAI) for “a long time”, Dan Schrag, Director of the Science Technology, and Public Policy Program at Harvard, says it is “a really important topic to work on”. In the video linked below, he said that, in2007, the idea was “taboo.” About a third of scientists in the field felt it was “inappropriate to even talk about the idea.” Our studies over the nearly 20 years since then have shown that doing SAI reduces the flooding, droughts and hurricanes that will otherwise be caused by global warming. SAI “actually works way better than I anticipated”. Every time I’ve looked a potential problem with SAI, “I’ve been surprised at how well it actually works.” “It has been said that ‘democracy is the worst form of government except for all the others that have been tried’ – that’s how I feel about solar geoengineering.”
