Hi everyone - It is my pleasure to announce the Climate Engineering Conference 2014: Critical Global Discussions (CEC14), to be held in August of next year in Berlin. The official conference website - http://www.ce-conference.org - contains much more detailed information about the purpose of the conference, but here is an overview:
Climate Engineering has emerged rapidly as a contentious issue in mainstream political, scientific, and cultural discussions. We see a window of opportunity for bringing together the research, policy, and civic communities under one roof to discuss the highly complex and interlinked ethical, social and technical issues that come into focus when discussing climate engineering. We thus strive to engage in critical global discussions by bringing in new voices, providing a forum for exchange and dialogue, and examining how climate engineering intersects with other issues and broader trends by organizing a large conference on climate engineering in August 2014. As a member of the steering committee, I would like to welcome anyone who is interested to submit session proposals. These can include disciplinary, interdisciplinary, and transdisciplinary ideas. We want to consider anything that you think is useful! More information about session proposals can be found at http://www.ce-conference.org/call-session-proposals . The deadline for submitting session ideas is Friday, December 6. If you have any questions about anything related to this conference, please do not hesitate to contact me at [email protected] (please use CEC14 as the subject of your email). If I'm not the right person to answer your question, I'll make sure you get sent to the right place.
