Wong, Pak-Hang; et al (2014): Compensation for Geoengineering Harms and No-Fault Climate Change Compensation

Wong, Pak-Hang; Douglas, Tom; Savulescu, Julian (2014): Compensation for Geoengineering Harms and No-Fault Climate Change Compensation (CGG Working Papers, 8).

„In this paper, we argue against the view that geoengineering presents new and unique challenges relating to compensation. More specifically, we show that placing these challenges within the broader context of anthropogenic climate change reveals them to be less serious and less specific to geoengineering than some appear to believe.“

Drewry, Darren T.; et al. (2014): Simultaneous improvement in productivity, water use, and albedo through crop structural modification

Drewry, Darren T.; Kumar, Praveen; Long, Stephen P. (2014): Simultaneous improvement in productivity, water use, and albedo through crop structural modification. In Glob Chang Biol. DOI 10.1111/gcb.12567.

„Spanning 15% of the global ice-free terrestrial surface, agricultural lands provide an immense and near-term opportunity to address climate change, food, and water security challenges. Through the computationally informed breeding of canopy structural traits away from those of modern cultivars, we show that solutions exist that increase productivity and water use efficiency, while increasing land-surface reflectivity to offset greenhouse gas warming.“
