HTTP:: Some Geoengineering Schemes Are 039 Technically Possible 039
--------
British investigators from the UK Royal Society have determined in a new study that some of the propositions related to mitigating the effects of global warming and climate change through geoengineering are feasible, or at least technically possible. These approaches may also yield positive results, the same report also states. Geoengineering refers to producing artificial changes in the planet's atmosphere, and/or oceans, with the effect of cooling down the climate, or accelerating the absorption and storage of carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas, in the oceans, the BBC News reports. The new paper, however, highlights the fact that the feasible propositions should not, under any circumstances, prevent governments from continuing to reduce carbon dioxide levels. They add that, even if the most optimistic geoengineering schemes prove to function, they will only do so in the short term, and will not be able to handle constant or increasing CO2 and methane emissions. In !
other words, these methods are just aids to the main effort, which should remain reducing the amount of carbon that the world's countries are emitting into the atmosphere yearly. The schemes include a large number of propositions, some pertaining to science-fiction, and others that could really be applied to some effect....
