*Authors* Hosea Olayiwola Patrick *23 January 2025* *Abstract* The discourse on geoengineering applications as a climate intervention strategy has been met with opposing views across many quarters. The central argument underlined the need for more research as solar geoengineering applications' implications are widely unknown. While the discourse raises justice, equity, and governance issues, an underlining debate is how geoengineering engagement should be tailored going forward. Using a systematic desktop review methodology, the paper provides a descriptive overview of Covid-19 responses and possible points to consider for climate interventions. The rationale is to examine the extent to which vertical and horizontal reactions and public opinions influence policy response and actions for Covid-19 adaptation and coping mechanisms as a lesson for Solar geoengineering engagement. It concludes that as a lesson for effective climate intervention, there is a need to develop strategic partnerships among various stakeholders, create an alignment between research objectives and the community's needs and peculiarities, consider the ethics of practice and develop a monitoring and governance framework to avoid possible stakeholders' excesses. *Source: Preprints.org* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "geoengineering" group.
