Smart technologies: useful tools to assess the exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation for general population and outdoor workers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Beside some documented benefits attributed to ultraviolet solar radiation (solar UVR), a lot of adverse effects are a consequence of a chronic exposure, including the occurrence of photo-induced skin cancer.

The Buying Time Argument within the Solar Radiation Management Discourse

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
In this article, we will establish a version of the buying time argument (BTA) in favor of Sulphur Aerosol Injection (SAI) Climate Engineering (CE). The idea is not to promote the deployment of such scheme, but rather to present the strongest possible ...

State Commissioning of Solar Radiation Management Geoengineering [PDF]

open access: yesEthics, Policy & Environment, 2020
Solar Radiation Management (SRM) is a proposed response to Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW). Other papers consider private SRM provision, e.g. via Voluntary Carbon Offsets (VCO).

Complementing CO2 emission reduction by solar radiation management might strongly enhance future welfare

open access: yesEarth System Dynamics, 2019
. Solar radiation management (SRM) has been proposed as a means to reduce global warming in spite of high greenhouse-gas concentrations and to lower the chance of warming-induced tipping points. However, SRM may cause economic damages and its feasibility

Geoengineering and the blockchain: Coordinating Carbon Dioxide Removal and Solar Radiation Management to tackle future emissions

open access: yesFrontiers of Engineering Management, 2019
Geoengineering is a proposed response to anthropogenic global warming (AGW). Conventionally it consists of two strands: Solar Radiation Management (SRM), which is fast-acting, incomplete but inexpensive, and Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR), which is slower ...
