According to a survey from August 2012, 77% of the world’s population is worried about the future of the climate. Experiments in deliberate weather and climate engineering, also known as geo-engineering, are multiplying the world over and the United States, Canada, the European Union, China and Russia are all funding evaluations of these techniques’ efficacy against global warming. Climate Clockwork introduces the scientists, business people and political decision-makers who are spearheading this research and reveals its historical background using spectacular environmental research archives, including lab simulations and field tests.
