Asayama, S.; Sugiyama, M.; Ishii, A.; Kosugi, T. (2019): Beyond solutionist science for the Anthropocene: To navigate the contentious atmosphere of solar geoengineering. In: The Anthropocene Review 33 (3), 205301961984367. DOI: 10.1177/2053019619843678.
„This paper explores this close yet precarious relationship between transdisciplinary GEC science and solar geoengineering in the context of Future Earth, a new international platform of Earth system science. Our aim is to understand how a transdisciplinary mode of science can navigate the contention over solar geoengineering and its course of research without breeding polarization. By seeking the immediacy of ‘problem-solving’, Future Earth is drawn into the solutionist thinking that orders the mode of engagement in pursuing consensus.“
