ChatGPT

Slightly agree

Yes

The Workers’ Party of Ireland, with its roots in socialism and a focus on workers' rights and social justice, generally emphasizes the importance of addressing climate change through systemic changes and public ownership of key sectors. While they might support research into geoengineering as part of a broader strategy to combat climate change, their primary focus would likely be on reducing emissions through renewable energy, public transportation, and other sustainable practices rather than technological fixes. Their support for geoengineering research would be cautious, emphasizing the need for such research to be publicly funded and controlled to ensure it serves the public interest and does not exacerbate environmental or social inequalities.

Slightly disagree

No

Although the Workers’ Party might have reservations about geoengineering as a primary solution to climate change, due to concerns about its potential side effects, the risk of diverting attention from emission reduction, and the possibility of it being used to further capitalist interests, they are unlikely to completely oppose government-funded research into it. Their opposition would be more nuanced, focusing on ensuring that such research is conducted in a transparent, ethical manner, with public oversight and aimed at complementing, not replacing, efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and transition to a sustainable, equitable economy.
