Geoengineering
Solar geoengineering might reduce the economic impacts of climate change, but abruptly halting it could trigger a rapid temperature rebound known as termination shock, potentially causing greater damage than unchecked warming. Researchers warn that this risk underscores the need for sustained international cooperation. Without emission cuts, global temperatures could rise 4.5°C by 2100, leading to $868 billion in damages.

A new study warns that even advanced geoengineering techniques like Stratospheric Aerosol Injection may fail to protect wine grapes, coffee, and cacao crops from climate change impacts. While the method could cool the planet, it does not stabilize rainfall and humidity crucial for these crops. Only a few growing regions might see benefits, leaving most producers vulnerable.
