"Modeling Study Suggests Geoengineering Could Slow Greenland Ice Sheet Loss"
A modeling study led by an international team of researchers has found that a geoengineering technique called stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) could potentially slow down the loss of the Greenland Ice Sheet. The study simulated the effects of SAI on ice sheet melting and found that under the scenario involving SAI, ice loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet would be limited, potentially reducing sea-level rise. However, the researchers caution that geoengineering is a highly contentious topic and may only address the symptoms of global warming without tackling the root causes, with unpredictable positive and negative outcomes.
