Hi all,

The program for the 2020 Gordon Research Conference on Climate Engineering is 
now online, here: https://www.grc.org/climate-engineering-conference/2020/, the 
meeting is planned for June 28-July 3, 2020.

If you haven't yet applied, we encourage you to do so!  We are looking forward 
to what will be an exciting and valuable meeting.  If you are an early-career 
researcher, we also encourage you to apply to the associated Gordon Research 
Seminar held immediately before the GRC; see here: 
https://www.grc.org/climate-engineering-grs-conference/2020/.  We expect to 
have some (very limited) funding available to assist in supporting early-career 
researchers in particular; if you would need funding please email me directly; 
our original goal was to make decisions regarding that by the end of March but 
given the current uncertainty that will likely be delayed until mid-April.

The GRC organization is, of course, monitoring the current rapidly evolving 
situation with the coronavirus.  If you already applied to the conference, you 
should have just received an email from them (I did, I presume everyone else 
did too).  As of today there has not been a decision by GRC as to whether we 
will go forward with the conference as scheduled.  The GRC organization will 
make a decision by mid-April as to whether it will be necessary to delay the 
conference - in which case any registration fees will be refunded, and we will 
wind up not meeting again until 2022.  While that would of course be 
disappointing, it is far more important to protect everyone's health.

Thanks, and hopefully will see many of you at the end of June!
