Dear Andrew,
I would not express it like that. First, it should be sober. Second,
since there are no outdoor experiments to report on, a lot of the work
will be modeling, although proposals for outdoor experiments, with clear
science questions that can only be answered that way, will be welcome,
as will ideas for governance of such experiments. Third, science should
always be communicated in a way that is understandable.
Since the final sessions have not been established yet, and what we
proposed (see below) may be combined with other topics, as Mike
mentioned, we will have to see what the final scope of topics will be.
Our proposed session abstract was:
/Geoengineering has been discussed extensively by IPCC for the first
time in the AR5 report, but that report will be two years out of date at
the time of this conference. Much research continues to be produced
investigating the climate response to various proposals for radiation
management, particularly artificial stratospheric aerosols, marine cloud
brightening, and cirrus cloud thinning. This session will only address
radiation management geoengineering, and not carbon dioxide reduction.
It will include new results from the Geoengineering Model
Intercomparison Project, which is designed to understand robust climate
model response to radiation geoengineering. This session invites
presentations on physical, agricultural, and ecological impacts of
anthropogenic control of the climate, and will contrast the potential
risks and benefits of future climates with various future pathways of
anthropogenic emissions, with and without geoengineering./

What kind of content are you looking for? I assume it's mainly fairly
sober,mainstream modelling work, dumbed down for policy makers?

Dear All,
Along with Ben Kravitz and Ulrike Niemeier, I have proposed a
session on geoengineering at the International Scientific
Conference “Our Common Future under Climate Change,” which will
take place at UNESCO HQ in Paris, July 7-10, 2015. The deadline
for abstract submissions is March 1, 1800 GMT. While all the
details of the parallel sessions have not yet been worked out,
please keep this in mind over the next 6 weeks so that you can
plan to submit an abstract and attend the conference. This
conference was organized to inform negotiators and the public of
the state of climate science in preparation for the Conference of
the Parties to be held in Paris in December. You can read more at:

The themes for the parallel sessions are at:
