Analysis of OPEN LETTER: We Call for an International Non-Use Agreement on Solar Geoengineering
Abstract
solar geoengineering has been proposed. The article pay attention to an important question which related to the building of solar geoengineering- Practicality. While affirming that the proposal to sign the International Agreement on the Non-Use of Solar Geoengineering is correct, we
also questioned some specific suggestions mentioned in the agreement. This article will analyze the original document from four points: introduction, attitude, recommendations, and critical opinion.
