„The scientific, ethical, political, and social implications of SRM research are necessarily global. Discussions about governance of SRM research should be as well.“

„Following on from “Carbon Capture” (volume 29 in this series), Geoengineering of the Climate System presents an overview of the technologies currently being considered as large scale solutions to climate change, and considers some of the possible benefits and disadvantages of each.“
Blog post on albedo crops. „With rapidly changing temperatures, farmers and crop growers may have to think back to what mom said and change up their system.“
Letters of response to request for information on geoengineering. Most letters on requests about the conspiracy theory of chemtrails.

„Here, we use available satellite bio-optical measurements from the MODIS/Aqua instrument and AVISO altimeter dynamic height data to examine the timing, magnitude and extent of this artificial iron fertilization experiment, comparing it with natural fertilization events such as volcanic ash deposition and mesoscale eddy transport in the Gulf of Alaska.“
„Operating under the Academy of Finland’s FICCA research programme, the COOL research project on aerosol intervention technologies for cooling the climate has engaged in the closer examination of two geoengineering techniques, which have seemed promising in international studies.“
„Most scientists oppose Russ George’s efforts to fix the world’s climate. But who’s going to do something about it?“

„By contrast, the temptation may become very great for some medium-developed nation feeling itself under climate change siege to unilaterally geoengineer itself (and the planet) out of high temperatures by seeding the stratosphere with sunshine-reflecting particles because it is so extraordinarily cheap.“
Media response to Robinson, J.; et al. (2014). „A plan to reduce carbon from the atmosphere by adding large amounts of iron to the Southern Ocean around Antarctica may not be as effective as previously thought, according to new research.“
