Solar Geoengineering – Why we must dim the sun before entering the post-fossil age with ECDF Associated Member Thomas Ramge

Topic: Humanity is not decarbonizing decisively enough. In a few decades from now, we will likely live on a planet with 2 degrees of global warming. Without solar geoengineering, billions of people will suffer unbearable consequences. Reflecting sunlight into space will be our best option to gain time.

When: 27.05.2024 from 15:30 until 16:00.

Where: Stage 10

AI my ass! Is digitalization a way out of the care crisis? With Julia Bringmann.
