The intensification of extreme weather events induced by climate change is fueling policy discussion over the potential role of global climate intervention. Alongside planetary-scale interventions, technologies for local and regional weather modification are receiving renewed attention and funding. We argue that their social implementation will affect future human-weather relations and propose a weather commons approach as a conceptual framework for democratic, community-centric weather modification for a post 1.5 °C world.
