NewScientist: "Termination shock could make the cost of climate damage even higher"
by Alec Luhn
The study is innovative in estimating damages based not just on total warming but also on how fast it arrives, says Gernot Wagner at Columbia University in New York.
Solar geoengineering “is riskier than it looks at first glance”, he says. “That is the contribution here.”
But given that emissions and climate impacts are increasing, more research is still needed on the trade-offs of geoengineering, says Wagner. “We are forced against the wall,” he says.
