Description: Geoengineering or the deliberate largescale manipulation of the planetary environment is increasingly being discussed as a potential strategy to counteract anthropogenic climate change.

Prevailing uncertainty in the sensitivity of the climate system to anthropogenic forcing inertia in both the coupled climate-carbon cycle and social systems and the potential for irreversibility’s and abrupt nonlinear changes in the Earth system with possible significant impacts on human and natural systems call for research into possible geoengineering options to complement climate change mitigation efforts.
