Hi All
Andy Parker's concerns about international disputes over geoengineering
might be reduced if only there was a technique which allowed a greater
degree of local control and the chance of tactical adjustments based on
day-to-day observations. It is the prospect of being stuck with an
unwanted outcome for the next two years which must be alarming.

I disagree fundamentally with the premise of this article.
A decision on climate has to be made. Everyone knows it. Everyone has
an incentive to avoid chaos. Therefore, people have a very large
incentive to stick to a consensus process, because anyone who doesn't
stick will instantly break that consensus and cause chaos - which is a
guaranteed loser for all.
Same reason villagers don't burgle their neighbours when police are
busy elsewhere dealing with a major incident.
