Description

If the detrimental impacts of human-induced climate change continue to
mount, technologies for geoengineering our climate – i.e. deliberate
modifying of the Earth's climate system at a large scale – are likely to
receive ever greater attention from countries and societies worldwide.
Geoengineering technologies could have profound ramifications for our
societies, and yet agreeing on an international governance framework in
which even serious research into these planetary-altering technologies can
take place presents an immense international political challenge.

In this important book, a diverse collection of internationally respected
scientists, philosophers, legal scholars, policymakers, and civil society
representatives examine and reflect upon the global geoengineering debate
they have helped shape. Opening with essays examining the historic origins
of contemporary geoengineering ideas, the book goes on to explore varying
perspectives from across the first decade of this global discourse since
2006. These essays methodically cover: the practical and ethical dilemmas
geoengineering poses; the evolving geoengineering research agenda; the
challenges geoengineering technologies present to current international
legal and political frameworks; and differing perceptions of geoengineering
from around the world. The book concludes with a series of forward looking
essays, some drawing lessons from precedents for governing other global
issues, others proposing how geoengineering technologies might be governed
if/as they begin to emerge from the lab into the real world.

This book is an indispensable resource for scientists, activists,
policymakers, and political figures aiming to engage in the emerging debate
about geoengineering our climate.
