They also discuss why research on these technologies is increasingly important, what some of the most critical challenges are, and why we shouldn’t consider implementation before making more progress on reducing our greenhouse gas emissions.

At a time when climate action is often portrayed as losing momentum, Green and Bold tells a different story. We spotlight a growing community of people who are working every day to advance evidence-based pathways toward a more climate-resilient future.

Season one dives into the cutting edge of climate intervention, often called geoengineering. We ask leading experts the hard questions: What do we know about these technologies and pathways and their ability to save us from the most devastating impacts of climate change? Could they distract us from the urgent efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions or has the time to invest in them arrived? And what research still needs to happen before we can trust the answers?
