Legal Liability and Carbon Capture and Storage: A Comparative Perspective
The report is intended to highlight key themes that have emerged in thinking about the design of appropriate legal liability regimes for CCS, and uses as core examples for comparison three jurisdictions - Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
Ownership Models for Geological Sequestration: A Comparison of the Emergent Regulatory Models in Australia and the United States
This paper compares the Australian and U.S. models of geologic ownership for CCS, arguing that the Australian model of state ownership is preferable as it provides clarity, structure, and certainty for CCS markets.
The Application of Biochar in the EU: Challenges and Opportunities
This paper reviews existing scientific evidence from a European policy perspective and identifies research gaps for future comprehensive assessments of the policy, environmental, economic, and health implications of the systematic use of biochar.
Enhanced Chemical Weathering as a Geoengineering Strategy to Reduce Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide, Supply Nutrients, and Mitigate Ocean Acidification
This scientific paper is an interdisciplinary review of enhanced weathering, the processes involved, and the applicability and risks of applying the method with a look at the legal framework for enhanced weathering.
International Law in the Anthropocene: Responding to the Geoengineering Challenge
This article critically assesses the regulatory regime currently being developed by the parties to the 1996 Protocol to the London Convention with respect to scientific research on ocean iron fertilization.
A Napoleonic Approach to Climate Change: The Geoengineering Branch
This article reviews the domestic and international laws that might control climate engineering research and testing in the United States and presents considerations for a regulatory scheme that would foster further research and testing.
Regulating Ocean Fertilization under International Law: The Risks
This paper explores the regulatory regime for ocean fertilization under the dumping regime, which comprises the 1972 London Convention and 1996 Protocol.
Regulating Geoengineering Research through Domestic Environmental Protection Frameworks: Reflections on the Recent Canadian Ocean Fertilization Case
