Dear Steve, In the article about your parliamentary hearing, it says:
"Everybody working in geo-engineering hopes it won't be needed - but we fear it will be," said Prof Salter.
This is incorrect, and I would like to request that you issue a statement to that effect. You are not speaking for me. And you need to ask everyone else working in this field, before you claim to speak for them. I personally fear that geoengineering will be used before all the potential effects are studied. This is quite different from fearing that it will be needed, because that implies that we know that it will be the only response society can take. Thanks.
