The University of Cambridge is spearheading one of four initiatives funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) to explore the potential effects and risks associated with solar radiation modification (SRM). This funding is part of the UK government's efforts to investigate strategies that may help mitigate global warming by reflecting sunlight back into space.

The research aims to assess the implications and risks of employing SRM, providing valuable insights for informed decision-making regarding climate interventions. The Centre for Climate Repair at Cambridge underscores the significance of this research in advancing understanding of SRM's viability and potential consequences.
