RFF FCEA Combined Logo]* *What's Next for Climate Engineering?* *A Seminar Co-hosted by Resources for the Future (RFF) and the Forum for Climate Engineering Assessment* *February 24, 2015* *12:45 - 2:15 p.m. EST* *Resources for the Future* *1616 P St. NW* *Washington, DC 20036* *A light lunch will be available at 12:30 p.m.* On February 10, the US National Academy of Sciences (NAS) released two major reports on climate engineering (also known as geoengineering), to help inform the ethical, legal, and political discussions on climate "intervention." At this seminar, a panel of experts will first review the reports' major findings and then consider their political and economic implications, in addition to addressing the following questions: Is a climate engineering research agenda now warranted? If so, what would it look like? What are the opportunities and dangers that accompany consideration of climate engineering? Will it be seen or sold as an alternative to mitigation and adaptation actions? What are other countries likely to make of the reports, and can climate engineering be part of a strategic package of responses to climate change? The release of the reports comes at a critical moment. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's recent Fifth Assessment Report suggests that the window for addressing global warming is fast closing. This year, the international community is working toward a post-Kyoto agreement on greenhouse gas emissions reductions. The United States has already announced new bilateral cooperation with China and India on renewable energy development and climate action. Climate engineering has long hovered on the fringes of these conversations. Do the new reports signal that climate engineering has come of age as an accepted response to climate change? *Introduction:* *Phil Sharp <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001BoeslIPQNQQIhEy_2h3mbe6iTaHQqvegpgv9q6CE03aQyerfdhLlh-uQvYoSxlxbeWdA_4FDEDNtCQ6gO5YIs0mZ9_tqxe0InxjQ7l0S9T4LWoIKknpZe8pdvPjLuL22i4dLzELQYyo9Zuxlv0TGH3xWvnC694RXEiMqYWzfCMb5jEcZO0lYbBigdwuCLyBgR1jD3KDk6QCwTGCONcZdWw==&c=815LaFNoUppaIcGQYEDRCmDBuMyQVg2J5FZcAYIfsFnWWAK_PmNsog==&ch=7tUET1DBAkmMqTpe5aD4PMNfOE6EJ5LtQ8YxyJ12x8WxecymYq1tXQ==>*, President, RFF *Moderators:* *Molly Macauley <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001BoeslIPQNQQIhEy_2h3mbe6iTaHQqvegpgv9q6CE03aQyerfdhLlhxDHMnrHlIqxgwxkZjOgTe4xTPCYXv6UC6VPn4MP_t2aXPW9F2MUIuz9JxpH1rnCFtBtiG7BO7pNxy-RAfSncwRA7YCWA4cJHo-XIVZ6T73pr9keOj63_3eiFXPhtIEe1c1B7lGtFBHJdIu26G9uBNS5tMGMN5vWc7EXI1NM_nn4gCnWIbB-j3j50PdmZVj9tA==&c=815LaFNoUppaIcGQYEDRCmDBuMyQVg2J5FZcAYIfsFnWWAK_PmNsog==&ch=7tUET1DBAkmMqTpe5aD4PMNfOE6EJ5LtQ8YxyJ12x8WxecymYq1tXQ==>*, Vice President for Research and Senior Fellow, RFF *Simon Nicholson*, Assistant Professor and Director of the Global Environmental Politics Program, American University; and Co-Director, Forum for Climate Engineering Assessment *Panelists:* *David Goldston*, Director of Government Affairs, Natural Resources Defense Council *Bart Gordon*, Partner, K&L Gates *Steve Hamburg*, Chief Scientist, Environmental Defense Fund *Jane Long*, Senior Contributing Scientist, Environmental Defense Fund *Admiral David Titley*, Chief Operating Officer, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration; and Founding Director, Pennsylvania State University Center for Solutions to Weather and Climate Risk *Registration for in-person attendance is required.* *To RSVP for this seminar, please visit RFF's event registration page <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001BoeslIPQNQQIhEy_2h3mbe6iTaHQqvegpgv9q6CE03aQyerfdhLlhzXmqpBQsHIsFrX58ULPrcWYd_gSnX64jRr7iziguRkU8Icje_D3_9PFrGPxrX-xpVf2pqIeDEUtlLxBtQGl9N_1SzZtG2Y2o2oKdMkoMFjguDEx9pagq4l52Gh2U3V1y9zKBlDnFnhLv1U5AO3oMKzmeMYQh8eMNWP84_yqhGaE&c=815LaFNoUppaIcGQYEDRCmDBuMyQVg2J5FZcAYIfsFnWWAK_PmNsog==&ch=7tUET1DBAkmMqTpe5aD4PMNfOE6EJ5LtQ8YxyJ12x8WxecymYq1tXQ==>.* *This seminar will also be webcast live at www.rff.org/live <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001BoeslIPQNQQIhEy_2h3mbe6iTaHQqvegpgv9q6CE03aQyerfdhLlh_LlNXK9IuddcGLz72JmtU1GkSa4wIA_KVXQHWJIPDiOXQA5Ns2uYgePw6AtvS_plkYI-n8UnxVsUKb5YoNr5fIAfUYPqeJd-4qqBFD4EGHiATrywU3DLo1s6auTwZHEbw==&c=815LaFNoUppaIcGQYEDRCmDBuMyQVg2J5FZcAYIfsFnWWAK_PmNsog==&ch=7tUET1DBAkmMqTpe5aD4PMNfOE6EJ5LtQ8YxyJ12x8WxecymYq1tXQ==>.
