„Until recently, analysis of optimal global climate policy has focused on mitigation. Exploration of policies to meet the 1.5°C target have brought carbon dioxide removal (CDR), a second instrument, into the climate policy mainstream. […] Here, I extend the Dynamic Integrated model of Climate and Economy (DICE) to include both CDR and SG to explore the temporal ordering of the three instruments. Contrary to implicit assumptions that SG would be employed only after mitigation and CDR are exhausted, I find that SG is introduced parallel to mitigation temporary reducing climate risks during the era of peak CO2 concentrations.“
