The second category of marine geoengineering activities, known as solar radiation management or modification (SRM), do not directly target GHGs. The first, known as greenhouse gas (GHG) removal , seeks to mitigate climate change by pulling GHGs – most commonly carbon dioxide – out of the atmosphere and durably storing them.
