“Reflecting Sunlight: Recommendations for Solar Geo-engineering Research and Research Governance” National Academy of Sciences, 2021.

The U.S. National Academy of Sciences (NAS) first pointed to geoengineering in their 1977 Energy and Climate report, and with more detail in the 1983 Changing Climate report. The NAS recommended research in 1992 and 2015.

“Climate Intervention: Reflecting Sunlight to Cool Earth,” National Research Council, 2015.

“Geoengineering the climate: science, governance and uncertainty,” The Royal Society, 2009.

The U.K. Royal Society report was the first by a scientific academy focused exclusively on geoengineering.
