Andrew:

There is a massive private energy effort underway in the US - one not
mentioned in your article.  It's called:  Global Climate and Energy Project
(GCEP).  You will find information on it at:
http://gcep.stanford.edu/index.html.  Most of the oil company money on
alernative energy is being fed through this mechanism.

Unfortunately, they do not fund things like SRM, although they would accept
a university proposal on large scale carbon sequestration.
