The above example highlights an important problem with not only some geoengineering approaches but Climate Change mitigation, in general. As destructive as Global Warming is to our civilization, biosphere and biodiversity, as a whole, some nations, peoples and regions may benefit from Climate Change and Global Warming. Russia and Canada, which are largely in cold northern latitudes, for instance, may benefit from warmer temperatures provided the biosphere doesn’t collapse. As far back as the 1950s and 60s, Russia, for instance, has been interested in modifying the climate and reducing the arctic sea ice to make the country warmer (Keith, 2000). This fact that some countries could benefit from Climate Change combined with the possibility of adverse effects to some regions and peoples if geoengineering approaches are carried out, makes the decision to implement geoengineering extremely complex and controversial.
