Climate Justice and Geoengineering (call for chapters)
In the last half dozen years, the ethics and politics of climate engineering has become a topic of vigorous discussion. Not enough of this discussion, however, has placed the ethics of climate engineering squarely in the context of the other (increasingly limited) options for dealing with the challenges of climate change. The editors are seeking chapters that will put the justice issues raised by various aspects of climate engineering into dialogue with the justice issues raised by alternative climate strategies. Placing the ethical issues raised by specific geoengineering proposals into conversation with the existing justice challenges presented by climate change will provide both a more fair and a more useful consideration of climate engineering. Abstracts of potential chapters (approx. 350 words) should be submitted to [email protected] by 2nd February, 2015 for consideration. Final chapters of 4,000 to 5,000 words will be due by the end of 2015. Multi-disciplinary co-authorship and non-technical analysis is encouraged. The chapters selected will join those of contributors that already include David Keith and Joshua Horton (Harvard University), Jane Long (Senior Contributing Scientist, Environmental Defense Fund), Pene Lafale (Bodeker Scientific, NZ), Toby Svoboda (Fairfield University), and Richard Tol (University of Sussex, UK), and others. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "geoengineering" group.
