Reflective CEO and SRM360 Board Member Dakota Gruener highlighted the urgency around #SunlightReflectionMethods research in her recent TEDx talk:
📢 Reminder: SRM360 infographics are now downloadable! For example, our recent article on how SRM would affect plants included this useful infographic on photosynthesis.

#SunlightReflectionMethods #SolarGeoengineering
Deployment of #SolarGeoengineering would require incredible international cooperation. Is the current approach to sovereignty and relations up to the task? Beth Chalecki explores this concept and makes a case for "ecological realism."
#SunlightReflectionMethods #ClimateIntervention
There is evidence that photosynthesis increased following the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo in 1991- a natural example of the reflective power of stratospheric aerosols. Could we expect the same result if implementing #SunlightReflectionMethods?
#SolarGeoengineering
While #SunlightReflectionMethods could cool the planet, they would not address the build up of CO2 in the atmosphere. Every tonne of CO2 adds to global warming, which means the planet will only stop warming when humans eliminate their CO2 emissions.

Last month, The Artic Ice Project announced it would be "concluding its research and winding down the organization.” We asked experts for their reactions.
#SunlightReflectionMethods
In his perspective piece, @nikolajkornbech.bsky.social argues that the fraught political landscape in the Arctic makes the region poorly suited for the deployment of #SunlightReflectionMethods and that the promotion of Arctic SRM could make matters worse.
#SolarGeoengineering #ClimateIntervention
Was relying on air pollution to mask human-caused warming a deadly “Faustian bargain”?
In a new paper, Prof. James Hansen and colleagues say yes -- and the world is now paying the price.

SRM360: Do nations get along?
Dr. Beth Chalecki: 😂
Check out the latest episode of Climate Reflections, the SRM360 podcast. We talked to Beth Chalecki, @olafcorry.bsky.social and Josh Horton about the geopolitics of SRM.

What is Cirrus Cloud Thinning? @univie.ac.at Senior Scientist @blazgaspa.bsky.social explains in 60 seconds. Essentially, CCT aims to stimulate a process that exchanges thicker, warmer "blankets" around the planet for thinner, cooler ones.
#SunlightReflectionMethods #SolarGeoengineering
“Cooling credits” are being offered as a way for companies and individuals to offset their carbon dioxide emissions. Is the concept working? And how should we look at SRM's role in the system?
#SunlightReflectionMethods #SolarGeoenginering #ClimateIntervention
With publications like @economist.com wondering if SRM will receive increased attention in 2025, our explainer videos are a good starting place for those new to the science or hoping to have it distilled.
#SunlightReflectionMethods #SolarGeoengineering #ClimateIntervention
Could the promise that SRM could reduce climate risks undermine efforts to cut greenhouse gas emissions? As the US reverses course on climate policy and eases emissions restrictions, what role will #SunlightReflectionMethods play?
