Atmospheric scientist reacts to Geostorm

It turns out Geostorm might not be the most scientifically accurate movie. Keep track of the errors with a free Notion account! https://bit.ly/simonnotionaccount

So I set out with the intention of watching all of Geostorm to look for scientific errors, but I genuinely couldn't watch further than the intro. If this video does well then I might subject myself to watching the rest. With Greenland, also starring Gerard Butler and extreme weather, coming on the horizon perhaps I could film a sequel as well.

In this video I use my experience as an atmospheric scientist to react to Geostorm, the truly awful movie starring Gerard Butler saving the world from a geoengineering project gone wrong. The movie has an interesting portrayal of geoengineering and climate change in general, and I found that I was reacting to the framing of global warming and geoengineering more than the scientific accuracy. I also go on to discuss the application of solar radiation management as a form of geoengineering, and talk about its significant disadvantages. I apologise for not making it past the intro, but bloody hell is this film bad. Let me know if I should soldier on and watch the rest!
