The U.S. government have formerly acknowledged the existence of geoengineering, saying that the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) may begin studying its effects on the climate if a proposed budget bill becomes law. The U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee proposed a budget bill which would instruct the Department of Energy to conduct research into the possibility of reflecting sunlight into space in an attempt to fight global warming. The official term of this process is called “albedo modification,” which is a type of geoengineering or weather modification.
