Washington Post Editorial Board: \u2018Humans might need to re-engineer the climate\u2019 \u2013<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA conversation about the risks and potential benefits<\/em> of re-engineering the climate is urgently needed.\u201d \u2026 \u201cClimate engineering scholars David Keith at the University of Chicago and Wake Smith at Yale think it would take no more than 15 souped-up Gulfstream jets to send up, say, 100,000 tons of sulfur per year into the lower stratosphere to block solar rays, at an annual cost of some $500 million. This could happen in as little as five years.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

No, humans most definitely don't need to "re-engineer" the climate.
