McLaren, Duncan; Corry, Olaf (2021): Clash of Geofutures and the Remaking of Planetary Order: Faultlines underlying Conflicts over Geoengineering Governance
McLaren, Duncan; Corry, Olaf (2021): Clash of Geofutures and the Remaking of Planetary Order: Faultlines underlying Conflicts over Geoengineering Governance. In Glob Policy. DOI: 10.1111/1758-5899.12863.
„Using evidence gathered from state delegates, climate activists and modellers, we reveal three underlying and clashing ‘geofutures’: an idealised understanding of governable geoengineering that abstracts from technical and political realities; a situated understanding of geoengineering emphasising power hierarchies in world order; and a pragmatist precautionary understanding emerging in spaces of negotiation such as UN Environment Assembly (UNEA).“
Hanna, Ryan; et al. (2021): Emergency deployment of direct air capture as a response to the climate crisis
Hanna, Ryan; Abdulla, Ahmed; Xu, Yangyang; Victor, David G. (2021): Emergency deployment of direct air capture as a response to the climate crisis. In Nat Comms 12 (1), p. 368. DOI: 10.1038/s41467-020-20437-0.
„[nbsp]Here, we model wartime-like crash deployment of direct air capture (DAC) as a policy response to the climate crisis, calculating funding, net CO2[nbsp]removal, and climate impacts.“
Belfer Center: Governance of the Deployment of Solar Geoengineering
„The Harvard Project on Climate Agreements has released a volume of 26 briefs that explores a range of topics related to how we might govern the deployment of solar geoengineering.“
Call for Evidence: Greenhouse Gas Removal Technologies study
Deadline: 03. March 2021
„The government has asked the National Infrastructure Commission to provide recommendations on the technologies that should be deployed to remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere and deliver negative emissions.“
Our Shared Seas: A Primer for Philanthropy on Ocean-Climate Interventions
„One useful categorization of ocean-climate efforts divides interventions into three areas: the mitigation of future greenhouse gas emissions, the accelerated sequestration of atmospheric CO2, and adaptation efforts to help vulnerable habitats and communities adapt to the stresses of climate change.“
Wired: President Biden, Please Dont Get Into Carbon Farming
„This is not the solution to our climate problems; it’s a sweetheart deal for Big Ag.“
Silver Lining: U.S. National Survey: Terminology for Approaches for Directly Influencing Climate
„SilverLining set out to better understand this effect for two of the most commonly used terms for approaches to directly influencing the Earth’s climate to reduce global warming.“
Borgen Magazine: Drone Reforestation: How New Tech Is Rehabilitating Forests
„DroneSeed advertises carbon capture as the primary benefit of its technology. The company believes that the use of carbon credits (a form of negative emissions utilized by industry to meet regulatory requirements) could further enhance the economic argument for investment in drone reforestation.“
