Environmental Meteorology and Climate Manipulation: Solving Climate-Geoengineering Technology Problems serves as a complete and concise view of climate engineering, where geoengineering is an umbrella term for human interventions that change and modify the earth's climate system. The book offers in-depth coverage of how human activity is shaping the earth more than natural forces; where it can be seen as a way of redesigning and modifying the atmosphere of the planet. It offers more viable solutions for climate engineering through theory, technology, and practice, as they relate to established technologies as well as recent and future advancements.

John Vacca is a technology consultant, researcher, professional writer, and editor. John has authored, edited and published more than 85 books, some of his most recent published books include: •Smart Cities Policies and Financing: Approaches and Solutions, 1st Edition (Elsevier, (2022) •Solving Urban Infrastructure Problems Using Smart City Technologies: Handbook on Planning, Design, Development, and Regulation, 1st Edition (Elsevier, 2020) •Nanoscale Networking and Communications Handbook, 1st Edition (CRC Press, an imprint of Taylor & Francis, 2019) John was also a configuration management specialist, computer specialist, and the computer security official (CSO) for NASA's space station program (Freedom) and the International Space Station Program, from 1988 until his retirement from NASA in 1995.
