For many travelers, Antarctica is a bucket-list destination, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to touch all seven continents. In 2023, a record-breaking 100,000 tourists made the trip. But the journey begs a fundamental question: What do we risk by traveling to a place that is supposed to be uninhabited by humans? And as the climate warms, should we really be going to Antarctica in the first place?

1 News Roundup: major reports on SRM from Germany and the US, how to assess risk, and how emotions impact SRM opinions 33:55
To discuss SRM news over the past month, we're joined by Chad Baum, behavioral scientist and Assistant Professor at Aarhus University in Denmark, and Julie Vinders, Lawyer and Senior Research Analyst at Trilateral Research in the UK. We'll talk through the German Environmental Agency's recent policy report on SRM , as well as the Council on Foreign Relations' Climate Realism Initiative , that considers SRM as one of many interventions to "avert catastrophic global climate change". We'll also discuss Julie's article on how the precautionary principle as understood under EU law applies to SRM, and Chad's recent international study of over 30,000 people examining how emotions impact public support for climate interventions . Climate Reflections is a production of SRM360, a non-profit knowledge hub supporting an informed, evidence-based discussion of sunlight reflection methods.

Modern efforts to clean up air pollution started in the 1950s following the London Smog event, which killed nearly 12,000 people . Much of that pollution was caused by sulphate aerosols. The health and environmental impacts of sulphate pollution were well understood by the 2000s, but another impact was becoming increasingly clear: sulphate aerosols reflected incoming solar radiation, preventing some global warming. The realization that clean air legislation was contributing, in part, to global warming, led Paul Crutzen, a Nobel Prize-winning atmospheric chemist, to make an unorthodox suggestion in 2006: what if we added sulfate particles into the upper atmosphere, purposefully, to reflect sunlight while avoiding negative health impacts? Would it avoid the health impacts? This episode explores the history and risks of the sunlight reflection method known as stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI), and its relationship to air pollution. We’re joined by Oliver Morton, Senior and Briefings Editor at The Economist, and Daniele Visioni, Assistant Professor of Earth and Atmospheric Science at Cornell University.

In a contentious meeting in late February, the IPCC agreed on outlines that include discussions of SRM for its 7th assessment report. For the first time in IPCC history, the US was notably absent, having been banned from participation by the Trump administration. Meanwhile, Raymond Pierrehumbert and Michael Mann, two prominent climate scientists and critics of SRM argue that the UK government should pull the plug on their Advanced Research and Invention Agency - or Aria - which was created by an act of Parliament and intends to commit £56.8 million or about $73 million to projects that evaluate the feasibility, scalability, and safety of solar geoengineering ideas. In this monthly news roundup, Pete Irvine discusses these and other recent SRM-relevant developments with experts Sandro Vattioni, Post Doctoral Researcher in Atmospheric Physics at ETH Zurich, Alfonso Fernández, Full Professor of Physical Geography at Universidad de Concepción in Chile, Daniele Visioni, Assistant Professor of Earth and Atmospheric Science at Cornell University, and Tyler Felgenhauer, Senior Research Scientist at Duke University and the Duke Center on Risk.

Cynthia Scharf has spoken with senior policy makers, UN officials, think tanks and NGOs across the world about climate change and sunlight reflection methods (SRM). Eight years ago, when she first began having these discussions, most people did not see SRM as a serious issue with implications for every country in the world. Now, they are interested. But as interest grows, the gap between the research community and policymakers' knowledge has also grown. Join our exclusive conversation with Cynthia Scharf, Senior Fellow at the Center for Future Generations, as she shares what policymakers are thinking about SRM and what information needs to be shared to enable transparency in this controversial space.

Climate change will disrupt the geopolitical landscape. So will Sunlight Reflection Methods (SRM). But might SRM help reduce international tensions by reducing the impacts of climate change? Or will these methods cause more or worse disruptions? For this episode of Climate Reflections, host Pete Irvine speaks with geopolitical experts to explore the current geopolitical landscape and how SRM might interact with it to impact international relations. Guests: Olaf Corry, Professor of Global Security Challenges at the University of Leeds, Beth Chalecki, Associate Professor of International Relations in the Political Science Department at the University of Nebraska, Omaha, and Josh Horton, Senior Program Fellow at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.

2024 was the hottest year on record . Could that change how policymakers think about SRM? How might the new administration in the US approach SRM? Do experts think countries will effectively develop international SRM regulations? We discuss a recent paper examining the topic, and find that the outlook is not optimistic. We also discuss another recent study which found that although SAI would cause some deaths, implementing SAI could still save hundreds of thousands of lives for every 1 degree C of cooling, thanks to its reduction in climate change-caused heat-related deaths. Finally, we explore a new book chapter on Cirrus cloud thinning, and answer a question from our listeners. To discuss the latest SRM news, Climate Reflections Host Pete Irvine is joined by Blaž Gasparini, a Senior Scientist at the University of Vienna in Austria, and an expert in Cirrus clouds, Claudia Wieners, an Assistant Professor in Climate Physics at Utrecht University in the Netherlands studying the impacts of Stratospheric Aerosol Injection (SAI) on Atlantic circulation, and Shuchi Talati, a climate technology governance expert and founder and Executive Director of the Alliance for Just Deliberation on Solar Geoengineering.

On June 15th, 1991, the densely populated island of Luzon in the Philippines awoke to an explosion that would turn out to be the second largest volcanic eruption of the 20th century . Mount Pinatubo had erupted, releasing a huge cloud of volcanic ash, hundreds of kilometers across and 40 kilometers high. As satellites tracked the ash cloud spread around the globe several times over, atmospheric scientists noted that over the next year, the Earth's global temperature had decreased by as much as half a degree Celsius . The eruption had added around 17 million tons of sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere , a layer of the atmosphere between 10 and 50 kilometers above the surface. And this sulfur had gone on to form countless tiny aerosol particles. In the lower atmosphere, these particles would have been washed out in days, but because the stratosphere is dry and stable, these particles lasted for several years, reflecting light, and cooling the Earth. Could the climate cooling effect of this eruption be replicated as a way to help tackle climate change? In this episode, we focus on the basics of the sunlight reflection method known as Stratospheric Aerosol Injection, or SAI, an SRM idea that looks like it could offer a practical means of halting or even reversing global warming within a few years. What is SAI? What would it take to cool the planet? And who could do it?
