- The scientists who are really investigating ‘climate engineering’ techniques unanimously condemned the rogue behaviour of a startup that pumped a few grams of sulfur dioxide into a weather balloon at a secret launch site, and then freed the balloon to rise into the stratosphere, where it presumably ruptured and released the SO2.
