Multiple civil society organizations worldwide are campaigning for the UK Government and Research Councils to stop the SPICE Project (Stratospheric Particle Injection for Climate Engineering), in which they inject aerosol in the stratosphere, in attempts to cool down the rising temperatures. Gigi Francisco, the Global Coordinator of DAWN (Development Alternatives with Women for a New Era), a global south feminist network, worries that the 10th Convention on Biodiversity meeting in Japan and the agreements on geo-engineering are not being honored and are a setback to finding sustainable development solutions. Diana Bronson from ETC Group, an international technology watchdog, alerts us to the consequences of trying to block sunlight to reach our earth, such as food insecurity and changing rains, among others.
