Kruger, Tim (2015): Dimensions of Geoengineering: An Analysis of the Royal Society’s ‚Blob‘ Diagram (CGG Working Papers, 26).

„The Royal Society’s 2009 report “Geoengineering the climate: Science, governance and uncertainty” is seen as a key reference on the subject of geoengineering and one of the diagrams which depicts a preliminary evaluation of the range of proposed techniques is one of the most remarked upon pieces of the report. For many, it presents a useful synthesis of the analysis that went into the report. For others, however, the diagram is problematic. This paper unpacks some of the diagram’s limitations.“
