‘The Canadian group is part of a debate about geoengineering – deliberate and sometimes sci-fi-like interventions designed to slow climate change. A U.N. panel of climate scientists says carbon dioxide and other gases are causing global temperatures to rise and change our climate and will lead to more heat waves, droughts, floods and rising seas. Geoengineers have proposed everything from brightening clouds to reflect more sunlight and heat back into space to – as in the case of the Haida – encouraging the oceans to soak up more carbon dioxide.’
