This Initiative

Solargeoeng.org is a non-profit information and research platform dedicated to raising awareness about the profound risks and dangers of solar geoengineering.

It is a network of over 610 academics worldwide (with new members continually being added). The platform provides accessible, evidence-based content to support governments, civil society, citizens and others to work towards and support a global ban on solar geoengineering technologies.

Want to learn more? Read our open letter on the need for an International Non-Use Agreement on Solar Geoengineering and supporting evidence from our global network of leading scientists, civil society organizations, and engaged governments.

Want to take action? We invite all academics, civil society organizations and citizens to support our call for an International Non-Use Agreement on Solar Geoengineering.
