Many experts are in favor of geoengineering, which involves manipulating the atmosphere by blocking sunlight or isolating excess carbon, but weather hacking in one region could have negative impacts in another and lead to global conflict, according to scientists. It is solar geoengineering that appears to be the most

problematic and not so much carbon capture because solar geoengineering would involve spraying chemicals into the air that would block some sunlight. When speaking on the sun blocking topic, geoengineering researcher Juan Moreno-Cruz told Business Insider: “The threat of war never is out of the question.” If geoengineering is going to happen then all countries would have to be informed and agree because some areas may be more negatively affected than others. Andrea Flossmann, a scientist at the World Meteorological Organization, explained in a WMO report: “The atmosphere has no walls.  READ MORE
