In response, scientists and other stakeholders are considering the viability several solar radiation modification (SRM) techniques. These aim to reflect solar radiation (sunlight) back into space or allow more heat to escape Earth's atmosphere in order to counter some of the effects of climate change by reducing the global temperature.<\/p>\n<p>SRM approaches would not address the causes of climate change and so cannot be substitutes for reducing emissions or removing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. At best, they might 'buy time' while those essential measures are accelerated.<\/p>\n<p>However, the international community does not yet know enough about the risks, costs and potential benefits, or governance requirements, to understand if SRM approaches could be viable, or - if so - whether, when or how to deploy them.<\/p>\n<p>In this context, the webinar will present the principles of stratospheric aerosol injection and marine cloud brightening, two of the main SRM approaches. During the discussion, we will address the potential benefits and risks of SRM, their governance challenges and present the initial findings of ongoing research on the hydrological impacts of SRM in La Plata Basin.<\/p>\n<p>The webinar will be held in Spanish and English. Simultaneous translation will be offered.
