Moral Conflicts of several “Green” terrestrial Negative Emission Technologies regarding the Human Right to Adequate Food – A Review
This paper investigates whether BECCS, afforestation/reforestation, and enhanced weathering would cause moral conflicts regarding the human right to adequate food if implemented on a scale sufficient to limit global warming “to well below 2 C”.
Indigeneity in Geoengineering Discourses: Some Considerations
This paper focuses on the role of indigenous peoples in the geoengineering discourse and frames the challenges with identifying indigenous consent to geoengineering activities.
Normative issues of geoengineering technologies
This chapter, from the book Managing Global Warming (2019), gives a brief overview of the emergence of the idea of negative emissions technologies in climate change policy and the normative issues—questions of values—that they might raise.
Safeguarding Against Environmental Injustice: 1.5°C Scenarios, Negative Emissions, and Unintended Consequences
This article argues that environmental and climate justice concerns need to be accounted for in the design of policy measures for keeping warming below 1.5°C, and outlines policy guidance for safeguarding against unintended consequences.
Climate engineering and human rights
In this Forum, three scholars discuss how climate engineering will pose novel human rights challenges, and may well force reconsideration of how human rights are applied as a guide to action.
