Dr. Ye Tao at LCAW 2025
MEER Presentation at London Climate Action Week 2025
Filmed on June 23, 2025 | London, UK
In this compelling talk, Ye Tao, founder of the MEER initiative (Mirrors for Earth's Energy Rebalancing), presents the principles of sustainable global cooling—a strategy rooted in science, constrained by real-world limits of energy and material availability.
As part of London Climate Action Week 2025, this presentation explores:
- Why surface-based solar reflectors may be essential in the climate response
- How energy and material constraints shape viable cooling strategies
- The urgent need for scalable, low-impact interventions in heat-stressed regions
- Why mitigation alone is not enough without adaptation now
This session highlights the role of reflective cooling technologies in addressing extreme heat, global energy imbalance, and environmental justice—starting with the regions that need it most.
