Solar Radiation Modification (SRM) covers a range of technologies that have the potential to cool the Earth’s climate. SRM is therefore the subject of intense and controversial debate around whether it might provide a means to tackle global warming and the devastating impacts of climate change.
Three major reports have recently been published by the European Scientific Advice Mechanism (SAM) and the European Group on Ethics (EGE). Between them, they set out the evidence and present policy recommendations on SRM to the European Commission.
At this event held on 2nd April and hosted by Insights Wales, Louise Edwards, Manager of the Academia Europaea Hub at Cardiff University, shared her experiences of coordinating the evidence review work on SRM for the Scientific Advice Mechanism.
