Sounds like the UK will go 1, 2 in this race.

Thanks for this Ken. Once again someone in California tells me about
something in my own back yard that I hadn't heard of.
Can any UK academic or university person explain whats going on here.
Have we got a race between the National Environmental Research Council
and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council to take
control of geoengineering research?
Sounds like fun! The more the merrier!

Subject: NERC geoengineering public dialogue - progress update
Dear all,
A progress update on the NERC public dialogue on geoengineering is
below.
1) Contractors
We are pleased to announce that Ipsos MORI, working with Dialogue
by Design and the British Science Association, have been chosen to
design and run the workshop sessions and open access events for
the dialogue. Collingwood Environmental Planning will run an
independent evaluation of the dialogue process.
2) Steering group
Details of steering group membership have been posted on the
geoengineering public dialogue page of the NERC website
(http://www.nerc.ac.uk/about/consult/geoengineering.asp) The
steering group is chaired by Professor Charles Godfray of the
University of Oxford , and includes representatives from academia,
government, industry and charities.
3) Hopes and concerns about geoengineering
Finally, we'd like to thank all who sent in views on their hopes
and concerns about potential geoengineering technologies, and on
what questions we should ask as part of the dialogue. Your
comments will be collated and passed on to the steering group and
Ipsos MORI as they develop plans for the dialogue workshops.
Please feel free to forward this e-mail to colleagues. You can
contact [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>> if you have any queries or
would like to be removed from our mailing list.
Regards,
Peter Hurrell
