Can Science Fix Climate Change A Case Against Climate Engineering

Can Science Fix Climate Change A Case Against Climate Engineering

Mike Hulme

About this book

"In this book, Mike Hulme argues against this kind of hubristic techno-fix. Drawing upon a distinguished career studying the science, politics and ethics of climate change, he shows why using science to fix the global climate is undesirable, ungovernable and unattainable. Science and technology should instead serve the more pragmatic goals of increasing societal resilience to weather risks, improving regional air quality and driving forward an energy technology transition. Seeking to reset the planet's thermostat is not the answer." -- Publisher.
