NZZ: How geoengineers fight global warming (German)
German newspaper article on solar radiation management.
Deccan Herald: Reducing global warming: Could reflecting sunlight back into space work?
„One of the most important geoengineering options is Solar Radiation Management (SRM). SRM aims at reflecting inbound sunlight back into space, reducing the amount of heat absorbed by the earth and lowering global temperatures.“
PhysOrg: How will the global community react if vulnerable nations pioneer solar radiation geoengineering?
„Jonathan Gilligan, associate professor of Earth and environmental sciences and civil and environmental engineering, and a group of international researchers have illustrated potential international conflicts over climate change.“
Nature: Can artificially altered clouds save the Great Barrier Reef?
„Australian scientists are rushing to develop new technologies — such as ways to block sunlight — to help preserve corals in the face of climate change.“
The Guardian: What if it’s too late to save our planet without geoengineering?
„Climate engineering sounds scary. But is coming whether we like it or not, this scientist says.“ (Interview with Holly Jean Buck)
The Guardian: Geoengineering by Gernot Wagner review – a stark warning
„Spraying aerosols into the atmosphere may be fraught with risk, but to dismiss it out of hand is irresponsible, a climate scientist argues.“
Handelsblatt: The Green Deal does not mean replacing petrol by hydrogen (German)
German article on a green policy, including Solar Geoengineering.
Project: GeoEngineering and Negative Emissions pathways in Europe (University of Surrey)
„This project aims to investigate social legitimatization processes and deployment pathways of an effective supply chain. To do that, public attitudes, sentiments and discourses related to innovation will be analysed based a stakeholder survey instruments, focus groups, and social media data across Europe. For example, we will assess public options and perceptions (or misperceptions) of performance, risk, cost, and other factors. It will also collect information from relevant supply chain stakeholders, seeking to hurdles that need to be overcome and levers that can be exploited to successfully deploy these technologies. The results will allow us to develop strong evidence base for understanding and explaining the attitudes of different groups towards GeoEngineering and Negative Emissions innovation pathways.“
Blog: Why & how we raised $1.4M to combat extreme climate change in 8 weeks and what you can do to help
„With this post I want to throw down the gauntlet to folks in games and other industries that have benefited from the pandemic to do our part to help fix the climate. Yes — I’m talking about you. The example from those who contributed to this is just a small step. There is so much more to accomplish individually and together. #doyourpart today and share it to inspire others.”
