Futures, 2018 There has been much discussion of the moral, legal and prudential implications of geoengineering, and of governance structures for both the research and deployment of such technologies. However, insufficient attention has been paid to how such measures might affect geoengineering in terms of the incentive structures which underwrite scientific progress.

How Negative Frames Can Undermine Public Support for Studying Solar Geoengineering in the U.S [PDF]
Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022 Scientists and policymakers have become interested in the viability of solar geoengineering as a way to manipulate the Earth’s temperature in the face of unabated global warming.

Geoengineering as Collective Experimentation [PDF]
Science and Engineering Ethics, 2015 Geoengineering is defined as the 'deliberate and large-scale intervention in the Earth's climatic system with the aim of reducing global warming'. The technological proposals for doing this are highly speculative. Research is at an early stage, but there is a strong consensus that technologies would, if realisable, have profound and surprising ...

International Debate Over Geoengineering and Geoengineering Governance
Chinese Journal of Urban and Environmental Studies, 2017 In the face of the severe challenge of global climate change, all countries find it difficult to hold the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2[Formula: see text]C above pre-industrial levels, let alone 1.5[Formula: see text]C. In recent years, geoengineering has gained increasingly more attention from the international community ...

Gravitationally bound geoengineering dust shade at the inner Lagrange point [PDF]
, 2012 This paper presents a novel method of space-based geoengineering which uses the mass of a captured near Earth asteroid to gravitationally anchor a cloud of unprocessed dust in the vicinity of the L1 position to reduce the level of solar insolation at ...

The feasibility of using an L1 positioned dust cloud as a method of space-based geoengineering [PDF]
, 2012 In this paper a method of geoengineering is proposed involving clouds of dust placed in the vicinity of the L1 point as an alternative to the use of thin film reflectors.

Catastrophes, fractals and chaos in geoengineering and water treatment systems [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2021 The present paper provides the assessing scale of the actual state of the geoengineering complexes and the model for predicting the behavior of supporting structures. To predict accidents in geoengineering and water treatment facilities it is proposed to

An earth system governance perspective on solar geoengineering
Earth System Governance, 2020 Solar geoengineering appears capable of reducing climate change and the associated risks. In part because it would be global in effect, the governance of solar geoengineering is a central concern.
