Geoengineering won't save our glaciers.
Here's why.

As the cryosphere continues to deteriorate a growing chorus of voices is turning to geoengineering as a solution. Researchers have floated everything from giant underwater curtains to block warm water from reaching glaciers, to drilling holes to drain water from beneath ice sheets, to spraying reflective aerosols into the stratosphere.

The State of the Cryosphere Report 2024 warns that on a trajectory toward 3°C of warming, many regions will experience sea level rise and water resource loss beyond adaptation limits this century.

Geoengineering is not a plan. Decarbonisation is.
