Abstract

In the face of the severe challenge of global climate change, all countries find it difficult to hold the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2∘C above pre-industrial levels, let alone 1.5∘C. In recent years, geoengineering has gained increasingly more attention from the international community as an unconventional option to deal with climate change, and it has also provoked heated debates. This paper attempts to sort out related concepts, the focus of controversies and the research progress in terms of geoengineering, analyzes the international background of heated debate over geoengineering, probes into the governance of geoengineering under the framework of coping with climate change, and offers some suggestions for China to make strategic plans for geoengineering development.
