“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.”

“Photophoretic levitation could loft particles above the stratosphere, reducing their capacity to interfere with ozone chemistry; and, by increasing particle lifetimes, it would reduce the need for continual replenishment of the aerosol.”
