People are right to be cautious about geoengineering because our track record isn’t great, there are second-nth order effects which are hard to predict in a complex system like Earth, and there is no backup Earth or reset button. To wit, the geoengineering project of pumping tons of CO2 into the atmosphere every day hasn’t gone that well.
