Most of combating climate change debates implicitly assume that reducing GHG emissions alone will stop or slow down significantly the climate change. I am afraid we already passed that point. At least in short term we should give a serious consideration to active climate engineering that working together with limiting GHG gives us a fighting change to restore the planetary climate to a set-point we are comfortable with. Unfortunately, most of debates are emotionally charged and single-mindedly focused. My hopes for a rational multi-prong approach to climate control are low.
