地球工程是一个可行的，明智的，或实际的权宜之计，我们有在我们的武库的潜在反应全球变暖？在这一点上，我们还不知道，因此，声称我们应该找到答案似乎也没有什么争议。我评估了一个我们不应该试图找出的道德论点和一个即使我们尝试，我们也无法找到的方法论论点。我拒绝了第一种观点，但最终还是以不可知论者的身份接受了第二种观点，并概述了它为地球工程研究的支持者带来的举证责任。
Is geoengineering a feasible, sensible, or practical stopgap measure for us to have in our arsenal of potential responses to global warming? We do not know at this point and so it seems hardly contentious to claim that we should find out. I evaluate a moral argument that we should not try to find out and a methodological argument that even if we try, we cannot find out. I reject the first but end up as agnostic on the second, outlining the burden of proof that it creates for proponents of geoengineering research.
