Jack Stilgoe (2014): Responsible innovation in geoengineering. Experiment earth. Routledge.
Upcoming publication. „This book takes a critical stance on existing assumptions about ethical issues in science, giving students, researchers and the general reader interested in the place of science in contemporary society a compelling framework for future thinking and discussion.“
Methane, volcanoes, and the end of the world – Guest Post – Duncan McLaren – University of Lancaster. „The idea of ‘climate emergency’ has been a hot one in the ethics of geoengineering for a number of years, and got a lot of attention last week at the climate engineering conference (CEC14) in Berlin.“
„In Berlin last week, the conference ‘Climate Engineering 2014: Critical Global Discussions’ attracted the largest single gathering of researchers who scrutinise a range of technologies for deliberately engineering the Earth’s climate.“
„It was a great story, writes Andrew Lockley – scientists signing up to a ‚Berlin Declaration‘ imposing an effective ‚test ban‘ on outdoor geoengineering experiments. Except there was no declaration, and scientists never agreed to it. The world’s media got it completely wrong, yet the mud will stick – and may cause severe harm in the fight against climate change.“
„In a move which has been Christened the “Berlin Declaration,” a leading scientist at the Climate Engineering Conference 2014 (CEC 14) held in the German capital has issued a call for the formation for the first proper framework to guide large-scale geoengineering projects aimed at altering the earth’s atmosphere.“
„For years, Dr.[nbsp]Ken Caldeira’s[nbsp]interest in planet hacking made[nbsp]him[nbsp]a curious outlier in his field. A highly respected atmospheric scientist, he also[nbsp]describes himself as a „reluctant advocate“ of researching[nbsp]solar[nbsp]geoengineering—that is,[nbsp]large-scale[nbsp]efforts to artificially[nbsp]manage the amount of[nbsp]sunlight entering the atmosphere, in order[nbsp]to cool off[nbsp]the globe.“

„[…] some reflections why the world should have less, NOT more, experimentation of our climate.“
„Lasers from space to make rain and take apart greenhouse gasses. [nbsp]They’re definitely good examples of why space matters, if they work.“

„Ways of safely enhancing or augmenting this carbon uptake and storage therefore have the potential to contribute significantly to atmospheric CO2 stabilization efforts. Various physical, chemical, biological, and hybrid strategies of increasing ocean CO2 uptake or reducing CO2 leakage have been proposed.“
