Dr. Lisa Dilling, Associate Chief Scientist at the Environmental Defense Fund, joins Green and Bold to discuss stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI), a type of solar radiation modification that involves adding reflective particles to the stratosphere to cool the planet. They cover what we can learn from natural parallels like volcanic eruptions, the biggest research gaps around SAI's local impacts, and the key risks and questions that need answers before deployment.
