Stardust and its backers cannot be allowed to flout international law by developing and normalizing this extraordinarily dangerous technology.
It’s time to put solar geoengineering off the table for good, and refocus urgently on tackling the root causes of the climate crisis.

Solar geoengineering cannot be safely tested, fairly governed, or ethically deployed. Deployment would create winners and losers, undermining the rights of billions of people and raising the central question of who gets to control the global thermostat.

It's time to put solar geoengineering off the table for good - the call for a Non-Use Agreement is growing louder and stronger - you can support it here: solargeoeng.org

Stardust and its investors are accelerating a reckless race towards the possibility of perpetual dependency on this extreme and inherently unpredictable technology

Solar geoengineering would create winners and losers, cannot be fairly and democratically governed or safely tested, and begs the question of who then gets to control the global thermostat

Marine geoengineering is a dangerous distraction from real, rights-based climate solutions.
CIEL & FOE US urge states to uphold precaution, stop open-ocean experiments, and protect the ocean as a vital climate ally.

🛑 It’s time to hit the brakes.

This new brief outlines:
- The scale and scope of potential marine geoengineering deployment
- What’s at stake for coastal communities and ecosystems
- How international law restricts deployment and commercialization
- What states must do to uphold precaution and halt open-ocean experiments

These highly speculative techniques would turn the ocean into a laboratory and risk undermining the livelihoods of billions of people.
Yet experiments are on the rise with some projects already selling carbon credits in violation of international agreements.
