Earth's Future, 2021 Geoengineering is the focus of a large debate over potential solutions to climate change. However, in the midst of geoengineering and other large‐scale proposals, such as reducing emissions at an industrial level, the role of individual actions to reduce

Stratospheric sulfate geoengineering could enhance the terrestrial photosynthesis rate [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016 Stratospheric sulfate geoengineering could impact the terrestrial carbon cycle by enhancing the carbon sink. With an 8 Tg yr−1 injection of SO2 to produce a stratospheric aerosol cloud to balance anthropogenic radiative forcing from the Representative

Geoengineering: Symmetric precaution [PDF]
Science, 2021 As alarm about climate change and calls for action intensify, solar geoengineering (SG) is seeing increased attention and controversy. Views on whether it should or will ever be used diverge, but the evidentiary basis for these views is thin. On such a high-stakes, knowledge-limited issue, one might expect strong support for research, but even research

Response of the Indian summer monsoon to global warming, solar geoengineering and its termination
Scientific Reports, 2021 The response of the Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) to global warming, solar geoengineering and its termination is examined using the multi-model mean of seven global climate model simulations from G2 experiment of the Geoengineering Model Intercomparison ...

The EPSRC's policy of responsible innovation from a trading zones perspective [PDF]
, 2016 Responsible innovation (RI) is gathering momentum as an academic and policy debate linking science and society. Advocates of RI in research policy argue that scientific research should be opened up at an early stage so that many actors and issues can ...

Geoengineering as Collective Experimentation. [PDF]
, 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

The Red Dawn of Geoengineering: First Step Toward an Effective Governance for Stratospheric Injections [PDF]
, 2016 A landmark report by the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) issued in 2015 is the latest in a series of scientific studies to assess the feasibility of geoengineering with stratospheric aerosols to offset anthropogenic global warming and to conclude that

Geoengineering: Whiter skies? [PDF]
, 2012 One proposed side effect of geoengineering with stratospheric sulfate aerosols is sky whitening during the day and afterglows near sunset, as is seen after large volcanic eruptions.

Strategic incentives for climate geoengineering coalitions to exclude broad participation
Environmental Research Letters, 2013 Solar geoengineering is the deliberate reduction in the absorption of incoming solar radiation by the Earth’s climate system with the aim of reducing impacts of anthropogenic climate change.
