This research paper explores the origins of geoengineering and the influence of masculinity in the field, demonstrating how masculinity has historically shaped geoengineering and how modern geoengineering preserves hegemonic masculinity globally. Geoengineering evolved from scientific weather manipulation research dating back to the 19th century. From the beginning, this field has always been dominated by men, and it has maintained strong connections to the military and other male-coded institutions. Much of historical geoengineering research was pioneered by military scientists operating out of Lawrence Livermore Labs. Modern geoengineering research and funding is controlled by a “Geoclique”, who greatly underestimated the social dimensions of climate change. Geoengineering serves hegemonic masculinity because it promises to “fix” climate change without disrupting existing social hierarchies in any meaningful way. Much of modern hegemonic masculinity is predicated on the consumption of fossil fuels, with the world’s most powerful men deeply invested in the current socio-economic balance.
