This chapter places the governance of climate engineering in a polycentric governance conceptual framework.
Knowledge gaps on climate-related geoengineering in relation to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD)
This technical briefing presents an assessment of knowledge gaps around ethics, governance, deployment and research related to geoengineering, including carbon removal technologies, and the Convention on Biological Diversity.
Montana Tax Incentives for CCS
Montana Code Ann. § §15-24-3111 provides that carbon sequestration equipment, clean coal R&D equipment, and coal gasification facilities for which carbon dioxide is sequestered may qualify for an abatement of property tax liability.
A scenario process to inform Australian geoengineering policy
This paper reflects on an Australian geoengineering scenario project as a practical and innovative platform for informing governance.
Can We Make the Oceans Greener? The Successes and Failures of UNCLOS as an Environmental Treaty
The article evaluates if customary international law and treaty negotiations for sustainable use of biodiversity areas beyond national jurisdiction will progress the goal of marine environmental protection, with a brief look at ocean fertilization.
Grasslands may be more reliable carbon sinks than forests in California
This paper shows that California grasslands are a more resilient carbon sink than forests in response to 21st century changes in climate, with implications for designing climate-smart Cap and Trade offset policies.
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.
Summary of Carbon Storage Incentives and Potential Legislation: East Sub-Basin Project
This document provides a summary of carbon storage incentives and legislation of potential relevance to the CarbonSAFE Illinois - East Sub-Basin project for commercial scale CO2 geological storage complexes.
South Korea’s Legal and Regulatory System for Carbon Capture and Sequestration: Backgrounds, Current Circumstances, and Recommendations
This paper provides a roadmap for South Korea’s CCS legal and regulatory framework, including both legislative and government agency centered proposals.
Carbon Removal in Forests and Farms in the United States
The purpose of this paper is to explore the potential for carbon removal in forests and farms in the United States, to identify needs likely to arise on the pathway to large-scale deployment, and to consider ways to begin addressing those needs.
