„That is why I pushed for a hearing last month in the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Science, Space [&] Technology, to engage geoengineering experts in a discussion about the potential use of these mechanisms to combat climate change. A federal commitment to research is now in order, and, earlier this month, I introduced legislation calling for a modest federally funded program to lay out a research plan to determine the potential opportunities and risks of geoengineering.“
