This seems to be a case of someone getting the book title wrong. I
have ordered the book, but it seems this is not about climate engineering -
only about SRM.

Description
Climate change seems to be an insurmountable problem. Political solutions
have so far had little impact. Some scientists are now advocating the
so-called 'Plan B', a more direct way of reducing the rate of future warming
by reflecting more sunlight back to space, creating a thermostat in the sky.
In this book, Mike Hulme argues against this kind of hubristic techno-fix.
Drawing upon a distinguished career studying the science, politics and ethics
of climate change, he shows why using science to fix the global climate is
undesirable, ungovernable and unattainable. Science and technology should
instead serve the more pragmatic goals of increasing societal resilience to
weather risks, improving regional air quality and driving forward an energy
technology transition. Seeking to reset the planet's thermostat is not the
answer.
