2016

Scholarly Work

Randall S. Abate

This article addresses whether indigenous communities like the Haida in the U.S. Pacific Northwest region could assert a legal right to employ OIF as a strategy to help restore a cultural food source that has been depleted due to climate change.

Barometer Rising: The Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety as a Model for Holistic International Regulation of Ocean Fertilization Projects and Other Forms of Geoengineering

2016

Scholarly Work

Matthew Hubbard

This note argues that there is a strong comparison between biotechnology and geoengineering, and that the current regulatory framework for biosafety can serve as a model for similar regulation of ocean fertilization.

The Missing Pieces of Geoengineering Research Governance

2016

Scholarly Work
