The looming spectre of geo-engineering is explored by Noah and Timo as they enjoy the cloudy aromas of their Chilean 'Phantom River' wine. Will we have to turn to techno-centric solutions to battle the climate crisis? Has humankind's devastating, global-scale impact on the natural world left no choice but to become "better Gods" and intervene further? At what point will we accept the limitations of human ingenuity and come to terms with the fact that we cannot outmanoeuvre the natural world without unleashing serious unforeseeable consequences? Building on the case studies of gene editing, solar geo-engineering and carbon capture technologies, these are some of the questions they seek to answer in this episode.
