Mind the Gap: Marine Geoengineering and the Law of the Sea

2018
Scholarly Work
Karen N. Scott
This chapter, from the book High Seas Governance, examines the legal framework for marine geoengineering, analyzing the extent to which the modern law of the sea has responded to the gaps and challenges in the current regulatory framework.

Building a New Carbon Economy: An Innovation Plan

2018
Think Tank Report
Carbon180
This report presents an innovation plan that outlines the contours of a new carbon economy using carbon removal technologies and identifies the social, legal, economic and political research gaps of each technology.

This paper, part 1 of a 3 part series on NETs, clarifies the role of NETs in climate change mitigation scenarios, their ethical implications, as well as the challenges involved in bringing the various NETs to the market and scaling them up in time.

Negative emissions—Part 2: Costs, potentials and side effects

2018
Scholarly Work
Sabine Fuss, William F Lamb, Max W Callaghan, Jérôme Hilaire, Felix Creutzig, Thorben Amann, Tim Beringer, Wagner de Oliveira Garcia, Jens Hartmann, Tarun Khanna, Gunnar Luderer, Gregory F Nemet, Joeri Rogelj, Pete Smith, José Luis Vicente Vicente, Jennifer Wilcox, Maria del Mar Zamora Dominguez, Jan C Minx
This paper, part 2 of a 3 part series on negative emissions, presents estimates of costs, potentials, and side-effects for negative emission technologies.

Negative emissions—Part 3: Innovation and upscaling

2018
Scholarly Work
Gregory F Nemet, Max W Callaghan, Felix Creutzig, Sabine Fuss, Jens Hartmann, Jérôme Hilaire, William F Lamb, Jan C Minx, Sophia Rogers, Pete Smith
This paper finds that if NETs are to be deployed at the levels required to meet 1.5 °C and 2 °C targets, then important post-R&D issues will need to be addressed, including incentives for early deployment, niche markets, scale-up, and demand.

Comment on Geoengineering with seagrasses: is credit due where credit is given?

2018
Scholarly Work
Matthew P J Oreska, Karen J McGlathery, Igino M Emmer, Brian A Needelman, Stephen Emmett-Mattox, Stephen Crooks, J Patrick Megonigal, Doug Myers
This is a commentary on the article ‘Geoengineering with seagrasses: is credit due where credit is given?' that speaks to a concern in the article about a carbon crediting methodology over-allocating carbon credits for seagrass.

Comment on ‘Geoengineering with seagrasses: is credit due where credit is given?’

2018
Scholarly Work
Peter I Macreadie, Carolyn J Ewers-Lewis, Ashley A Whitt, Quinn Ollivier, Stacey M Trevathan-Tackett, Paul Carnell, Oscar Serrano
This comment seeks to clarify some of the questions raised by Johannessen and Macdonald, with an aim to promote discussion in the scientific community about the evidence for carbon sequestration by seagrasses with a view to awarding carbon credits.
