„Climate engineering technologies should to be taken up in ways that attend to gender-specific concerns. These could take account of differentiated impacts on women, their lack of power in decision-making, and the gendered nature of vulnerability.“
„UCLA School of Law’s Emmett Institute on Climate Change and the Environment invites applications for a fellowship in environmental law and policy, with particular focus on the societal implications, governance, and legal and policy issues posed by climate engineering (geoengineering). The fellowship is a full-time, one-year faculty position beginning July 1, 2020.“
Roussanaly, Simon, Jabir A. Ouassou, Rahul Anantharaman, and Martin Haaf (2020): Impact of Uncertainties on the Design and Cost of CCS From a Waste-to-Energy Plant.[nbsp]Frontiers in Energy Research[nbsp]8 (February). https://doi.org/10.3389/fenrg.2020.00017.
„This paper investigates the optimal design of carbon capture and storage from a waste-to-energy plant under uncertainties. With the aim of providing a better understanding of the impact of uncertainties on the design and cost of CCS chains, as well as the capture technology selection, the case of a hypothetical 40 MW waste-to-energy plant located in Norway is considered.“

„Emissions were documented in a greenhouse gas emissions life cycle analysis of 22 years of CO2-enhanced oil recovery (CO2-EOR) operations for a site in the Northern Michigan Basin, USA.“
„Done right, environmental review can reach what worries people most about climate engineering.“
„Two University of Wyoming researchers contributed to a paper that demonstrated, for the first time, direct observation of cloud seeding using radar and gauges to quantify the snowfall.“
„We’re in this crisis because we burn fossil fuels, have cut down the majority of our forests, and raise billions of farm animals each year. Each of these activities releases greenhouse gases, such as CO2, that prevent heat from radiating back into space.“

„In this study, we report the significance of iron fertilization from glaciogenic dust for glacial CO2 decrease and deep-water deoxygenation using our numerical simulation, which successfully reproduces the magnitude and large-scale pattern of the observed oxygen changes from the present to Last Glacial Maximum.“
„What would happen if someone had the option to spray “magical dust” in the atmosphere to bring down the global temperature, but with potentially dangerous consequences? The way people respond to this question isn’t always so obvious – and young people are no different.“
„Of particular importance to C2G’s work was the intensifying attention paid to proposals for[nbsp]large-scale carbon dioxide removal[nbsp]– and the important questions it raises about governance of these approaches, as well as the ways governance can help society sort through difficult choices.“
