Andrew, Stephen cc list
1. Thanks to Andrew for alerting us to this paper. I think the best I have seen combining Policy, Geoengineering and Economics. At first, it looks exceedingly complex, but after decoding the (new-to-me) nomenclature, not bad. A well written paper. 2. Stephen - I concur with your statement. But wonder whether you include the CDR suite in your term "CO2 reduction". They use the term "mitigation" - which seems to have been meant to include "CDR". They said (p 3, para 2) " Mitigation reduces emissions and the stock of GHGs, which allows a larger flow of outgoing radiation and eases the pressure on temperature to rise.

One policy might be to do as much CO2 reduction as you possibly can and then use geoengineering to clean up the rest.
