Thanks Mick, Yes, the "Ban" thing is becoming something of an urban legend. Here is how I would deconstruct the key thinking: "*in the absence of science based (science would not be absent), global (global what? Political, science, media talking heads, The C**olbert Nation**?), transparent and effective control and regulatory mechanisms for geo-engineering (We currently have 'reasonable knowability' of the combined human affect on our large climate systems and BD. The AGU just confirmed this view. Thus, we are currently, actively and knowingly geoengineering the planet. Once 'reasonable knowability' is established, the word 'intentional' becomes legally, morally and ethically moot...That truly is an "inconvenient truth"!), and in accordance with the precautionary approach and Article 14 of the Convention (This is contradictory to Article 15 of the Rio Declaration <http://www.gdrc.org/u-gov/precaution-7.html>), that no climate-related geo-engineering **activities 76<http://www.cbd.int/decision/cop/default.shtml?id=12299#cop-10-dec-33-fn76> that may affect biodiversity take place, until there is an adequate scientific basis on which to justify such activities and appropriate consideration of the associated risks for the environment and biodiversity and associated social, economic and cultural impacts, with the exception of small scale scientific research studies that would be conducted in a controlled setting in accordance with Article 3 of the Convention, and only if they are justified by the need to gather specific scientific data and are subject to a thorough prior assessment of the potential impacts on the environment;" Article 15 must take priority. Or, the mindless adherance to Article 14 becomes a suicide pact. No person, orginization or species should be subjected to such logic.* * * *Any thoughts?* * * *Michael*
