The paper explores the legal implications of climate engineering technologies, examining the balance between technological advancements and environmental protection. With the increasing urgency of mitigating climate change, climate engineering offers promising solutions to alter the Earth's climate system. However, the rapid development of such technologies raises complex legal issues that necessitate careful consideration. This study delves into the legal frameworks surrounding climate engineering, analyzing the challenges and opportunities they pose. It discusses the necessity for international cooperation in regulating climate engineering technologies and the potential conflicts between national and international laws. Furthermore, the paper addresses the ethical concerns related to climate engineering, emphasizing the importance of ensuring the safety and efficacy of these interventions. Ultimately, the study aims to contribute to the ongoing discourse on the legal and ethical aspects of climate engineering, with a view to shaping effective policies that promote sustainable development while minimizing the risks associated with these technologies.
