Carbon Dioxide Removal

Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) techniques, or negative emission technologies (NETs), are a suite of natural and technological pathways to remove and sequester carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the air. Unlike carbon capture and storage, these techniques remove CO₂ directly from the atmosphere or enhance natural carbon sinks.

Geoengineering: Basic science and ongoing research efforts in China

2015
Scholarly Work
CAO Long, GAO Chao-Chao, ZHAO Li-Yun
This paper introduces an ongoing geoengineering research project in China supported by the National Key Basic Research Program, which is investigating the physical mechanisms, climate impacts, and risk and governance of geoengineering schemes.

Impacts, risks, and governance of climate engineering

2015
Scholarly Work
LIU Zhe, CHEN Ying
This paper identifies how China should join in the discussion on governance relating to climate engineering (CE), including participation in current international schemes and potential global governance frameworks that include CE regulations.

Climate Geoengineering and the Role of Public Deliberation: A Comment on the us National Academy of Sciences’ Recommendations on Public Participation

2015
Scholarly Work
William C. G. Burns, Jane A. Flegal

Assessing Scientific Legitimacy: The Case of Marine Geoengineering

2015
Think Tank Report
Lucas Dotto, Bryan Pelkey
This brief recommends that parties to the LC-LP adopt legally binding governance transparency mechanisms and create independent assessment panels to remedy gaps in marine geoengineering governance.

Challenges in developing effective policy for soil carbon sequestration: perspectives on additionality, leakage, and permanence

2015
Scholarly Work
Tas Thamo, David J. Pannell
This paper aims to elucidate major issues around additionality, leakage, and permanence in the design of policy for sequestration of soil carbon, and to identify potential perverse outcomes and inefficiencies in some of the current policy approaches.

The International Politics of Climate Engineering: A Review and Prospectus for International Relations

2015
Scholarly Work
Joshua B. Horton, Jesse L. Reynolds
This paper offers an overview of the academic literature on international politics of climate engineering, including themes around unilateral implementation, the concern that it could undermine emissions cuts, the 'slippery slope,' and governance.

A Sociotechnical Framework for Governing Climate Engineering

2015
Scholarly Work
Rob Bellamy
This article explores the governance implications of a Deliberative Mapping project that, unlike other governance principles, have emerged from an extensive process of reflection and reflexivity.

Exclusive Rights to Saving the Planet: The Patenting of Geoengineering Inventions

2015
Scholarly Work
Anthony E. Chavez
This article argues that the United States should develop unique procedures to approve geoengineering patent applications and form a geoengineering patent pool that will facilitate both innovation and accessibility.

Emerging policy perspectives on geoengineering: An international comparison

2015
Scholarly Work
Suvi Huttunen, Emmi Skytén, Mikael Hildén
This paper examines a wide variety of policy documents from different countries, international organizations and NGOs to gain insights into how geoengineering is perceived at the policy level.
