Himmelsbach, Raffael (2017): How scientists advising the European Commission on research priorities view climate engineering proposals. In sci public policy. DOI: 10.1093/scipol/scx053.

„This study contributes to a growing body of research that studies how different societal actors view climate engineering (CE) in an effort to ‘open up’ received framings and make them amenable to deliberations. […] Drawing on fifteen interviews, the study explores how scientists who advise the European Commission on research funding priorities regarding climate change and sustainability view CE. They considered CE as treating the symptoms rather than the causes of climate change, as interfering in complex and unpredictable natural systems, and as engendering questions of distributive justice.“
