Assessing the direct occupational and public health impacts of solar radiation management with stratospheric aerosols Zero Geoengineering Posted on November 17, 2016 by Jolie DianeJanuary 30, 2021 Published: 19 January 2016 |Authors: Utibe Effiong and Richard L. Neitzel | Source “Our analysis suggests that adverse public health impacts may reasonably be expected from SRM via deployment of stratospheric aerosols. Little is known about the toxicity of some likely candidate aerosols, and there is no consensus regarding acceptable levels for public exposure to these materials. There is also little infrastructure in place to evaluate potential public health impacts in the event that stratospheric aerosols are deployed for solar radiation management. We offer several recommendations intended to help characterize the potential occupation and public health impacts of SRM, and suggest that a comprehensive risk assessment effort is needed before this approach to geoengineering receives further consideration.” Link to _Document_ Document_Assessing the direct occupational and public health impacts of solar radiation management with stratospheric aerosols Share this:FacebookTwitterTumblrRedditEmail Related
