Geoengineering refers to the deliberate large-scale intervention in the Earth's climate system to counteract climate change, such as by reflecting sunlight, increasing precipitation, or removing CO2 from the atmosphere. Proponents argue that geoengineering could provide innovative solutions to global warming. Opponents argue that it is risky, unproven, and could have unforeseen negative consequences.

No, other countries will get there before Canada and the technology will be easily available once this happenes.

Yes, but should have strict oversight over geoengineering projects to prevent risky innovations.
@B2BMK7B4wks4W
Yes, but only with a gradual implementation, & that it is constantly tested & improved upon.
@B29K7YN 1mo1MO
Yes depending on the budget and if the main needs of the country are met first then we can focus on a need that can change the whole world.
@B29HFDL1mo1MO
No, as geoengineering has not yet been proven to address the root causes of climate change
@B228W6V2mos2MO
No, but incentivize private companies willing to do it instead
