Poster's note : this contains Shepherd's "napkin graph" - IMO one of the 2
most useful geoengineering graphs

The Strategic Value of Geoengineering Research

Jane C. S. Long , John G. Shepherd

Abstract

Deployment of geoengineering technology should engender serious caution,
but geoengineering research would engender a strategic effect on the
climate change problem in general. First, the thought that scientists
should research geongineering because the world might need it could help
society develop an appreciation of the seriousness of the climate change
problem. Second, conceptualizing geoengineering through research promotes
conceptualizing a sorely needed technical strategy for climate change.
Finally, geoengineering research will have a strategic benefit for climate
science because the scientific issues that arise for geoengineering bring
into focus the very issues that plague climate science in general.
