I think the most accurate definition of climate geoengineering - Climate Engineering or (Insert new term here_________________), should include the following concept:
*"geoengineering schemes seek to mitigate the effect of fossil-fuel combustion on the climate without abating fossil fuel use."* David Keith Ecyclopedia of Global Change - Environmental Change and Human Society - volume 1 (2002) Also here: “Geoengineering Climate - David Keith - Dept. of Chemistry and Chemical Biology - Harvard University - Cambridge, Massachusett http://keith.seas.harvard.edu/papers/16_Keith_1998_GeoengClimate_s.pdf I think this is doubly accurate in the case of fossil fuel CCS and enhanced oil recovery with carbon storage. I don't think any level of language sophistry, or legalese, will separate this fact from reality. I have to say that, I understand that the many climate geoengineering schemes have many different levels of risk, and other issues such as those raised by Dr. Smolker, but I don't oppose them in such a blanketed way.
