This event took place at CERAWeek 2026.

With slow progress on emissions cuts, climate risks will mount rapidly over the coming decades. Stratospheric aerosol geoengineering offers a technically feasible means of halting global warming within years, but it presents a host of challenges. This session will provide an overview of the technology, its potential, risks, and the broader issues it raises.
