Remote meetings cannot replace the urgent human connections and negotiations required to address climate change effectively. We are facing an existential crisis that demands the full engagement and collaboration of global leaders in person, to harness the collective determination and innovation necessary for this challenge.

I believe that cloud geoengineering is a risky and uncertain approach to tackling climate change. Instead, we need to focus on reducing emissions through renewable energy, energy efficiency, and reforestation. The potential unintended consequences of geoengineering could be detrimental, and we should prioritize proven and safe methods.
