The sophisticated opposition to climate change initiated by George Bush Senior is to appease by supporting imcreased knowledge and thus avoid the need to act. This is just the most awkward and least nunanced of this pattern -or may I say another example of how far from knowledge based our political dialoque has become .
I have stated my view that those who make the case for SRM by diminishing the status and potential for CDR to address the challenge of climate change are unwittingly playing into the hands of those opposed to action. A coordinated community focussed on the threat and not their individual idea would insist that CDR be funded and aggressively pursued before pursuing SRM - or at least would begin every interaction with the statement that CDR is a much higher priority.
