I am in the Hubert camp, as well. As Andrew and a few others know, I’ve been 
part of the list from the beginning. I’m not active right now, but I watch 
closely. 

Recently, the group moderators acknowledged a shift away from a professional 
research orientation here, and more of a focus on broad interest. That’s fine, 
but to me that suggests that we’re more likely to see pieces posted here that 
cross the artificial boundary between solar radiation geo and CO2 removal geo, 
and that go places not adequately covered by those two terms. Also, we’re 
likely to see more social science and politics of geo pieces here, which often 
touch on all forms. Finally, if this group has embraced the notion that it’s a 
general audience list, then it should bias towards terms that would be broadly 
recognized. Like it or not, geoengineering has become the widely used term. 

Anyway, that’s my take.

cheers
