As climate deniers and their allies in industry and government thwart conservationists’ efforts, some scientists are working to develop a backup plan.
That plan uses technology to “geoengineer” the Earth’s atmosphere and reduce the impacts of climate change, says VICE on HBO in the introduction to its explanatory video on efforts to convert carbon dioxide to fuel.
Bill Gates Involved in Effort
