„Geoengineering has its bad sides and efforts to resolve them have kept the subject at the research level. Agreeing to deploy it for the benefit of the world can come in a year or so, if the world is bashed badly by weather events.“
Some modeling problems and need for field experiments.

„The present article reviews methods developed for the capture of CO2 directly from the air as well as their advantages and drawbacks. While strong bases such as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide could be used, their regeneration is energy intensive, requiring high temperatures.“
Chalecki, Elizabeth L.; Ferrari, Lisa L. (2012): More maple leaf, less CO 2. Canada and a global geo-engineering regime. In: Canadian Foreign Policy Journal 18 (1), pp. 120–132.
„Finally, we examine Canada’s abilities and resources as a middle power to act as a foreign policy leader in the formation of a global geo-engineering regime.“
Moreno-Cruz, Juan B.; Keith, David W. (2012): Climate policy under uncertainty: a case for solar geoengineering. In: Climatic Change. DOI 10.1007/s10584-012-0487-4
This paper has been published as a working paper before. „We find that even modest reductions in uncertainty about the side-effects of SRM can reduce the overall costs of climate change in the order of 10%.“
Preston, Christopher J. (Hg.) (2012): Engineering the Climate: The Ethics of Solar Radiation Management: Lexington Books.
„This book, including essays by 13 experts in the field of ethics of geoengineering, is intended to go some distance towards providing that treatment.“
General media article on CE, mostly SRM.
„The 2012 US Biochar Conference is designed to advance our understanding of the economic, science and policy issues related to biochar as both an amendment for soils as well as an agent to sequester carbon.“
