Dear colleagues,
This week, the *Carnegie Climate Governance Initiative <https://www.c2g2.net/what-is-c2g/>*'s *C2GTalk <https://mscrmapp.clickdimensions.com/editor/previewversion?accountKey=aRThr9IEbl0OPb9Rzvdd9J&version=4&orgname=9edad056da344cf1ae328548523bf52a&userlcid=1033&userid={8F522C3E-B696-E911-A969-000D3A4E8EF8}&id={B09ECEA6-3041-EB11-A813-000D3A4F6C1A}&typename=cdi_emailsend&appid=fb92f27d-0223-e911-a959-000d3a1f667c&disabled=true&sessionId=9989ef5d-1c44-eb11-a813-000d3a4f6c1a&callerPage=5#>* hosts Ambassador Elizabeth Thompson <https://mscrmapp.clickdimensions.com/editor/previewversion?accountKey=aRThr9IEbl0OPb9Rzvdd9J&version=4&orgname=9edad056da344cf1ae328548523bf52a&userlcid=1033&userid={8F522C3E-B696-E911-A969-000D3A4E8EF8}&id={B09ECEA6-3041-EB11-A813-000D3A4F6C1A}&typename=cdi_emailsend&appid=fb92f27d-0223-e911-a959-000d3a1f667c&disabled=true&sessionId=9989ef5d-1c44-eb11-a813-000d3a4f6c1a&callerPage=5#>, Permanent Representative of Barbados to the United Nations, who has held many senior national and international positions. She says island peoples may well consider climate-altering approaches <https://www.c2g2.net/introduction/>, and that it is essential for the most vulnerable to have a seat at the table when such approaches are considered. “I think that because the problem is such an immediate and existential one for island peoples, we certainly are willing to consider the use of technological interventions in grappling with the problem,” says Ambassador Thompson. “The challenge is: Are we going to be at the table when these new technologies are being considered? What will be the impacts on us? To what extent will we be victims of the technology—in the same way that we’ve been victims of climate change—rather than having the opportunity to understand and influence at the very early stages before there is complete rollout? To what extent will there be ownership of these technologies by island peoples, so that they can be appropriately adjusted or scaled for our particular circumstances or so that the adverse impacts do not exacerbate conditions in our countries, rather than our getting the benefit of the technology?” *Watch the **C2GTalk **interview **in English <https://mscrmapp.clickdimensions.com/editor/previewversion?accountKey=aRThr9IEbl0OPb9Rzvdd9J&version=4&orgname=9edad056da344cf1ae328548523bf52a&userlcid=1033&userid={8F522C3E-B696-E911-A969-000D3A4E8EF8}&id={B09ECEA6-3041-EB11-A813-000D3A4F6C1A}&typename=cdi_emailsend&appid=fb92f27d-0223-e911-a959-000d3a1f667c&disabled=true&sessionId=9989ef5d-1c44-eb11-a813-000d3a4f6c1a&callerPage=5#>, or with simultaneous interpretation into Chinese <https://mscrmapp.clickdimensions.com/editor/previewversion?accountKey=aRThr9IEbl0OPb9Rzvdd9J&version=4&orgname=9edad056da344cf1ae328548523bf52a&userlcid=1033&userid={8F522C3E-B696-E911-A969-000D3A4E8EF8}&id={B09ECEA6-3041-EB11-A813-000D3A4F6C1A}&typename=cdi_emailsend&appid=fb92f27d-0223-e911-a959-000d3a1f667c&disabled=true&sessionId=9989ef5d-1c44-eb11-a813-000d3a4f6c1a&callerPage=5#>, French <https://mscrmapp.clickdimensions.com/editor/previewversion?accountKey=aRThr9IEbl0OPb9Rzvdd9J&version=4&orgname=9edad056da344cf1ae328548523bf52a&userlcid=1033&userid={8F522C3E-B696-E911-A969-000D3A4E8EF8}&id={B09ECEA6-3041-EB11-A813-000D3A4F6C1A}&typename=cdi_emailsend&appid=fb92f27d-0223-e911-a959-000d3a1f667c&disabled=true&sessionId=9989ef5d-1c44-eb11-a813-000d3a4f6c1a&callerPage=5#> or Spanish <https://mscrmapp.clickdimensions.com/editor/previewversion?accountKey=aRThr9IEbl0OPb9Rzvdd9J&version=4&orgname=9edad056da344cf1ae328548523bf52a&userlcid=1033&userid={8F522C3E-B696-E911-A969-000D3A4E8EF8}&id={B09ECEA6-3041-EB11-A813-000D3A4F6C1A}&typename=cdi_emailsend&appid=fb92f27d-0223-e911-a959-000d3a1f667c&disabled=true&sessionId=9989ef5d-1c44-eb11-a813-000d3a4f6c1a&callerPage=5#>* *- The C2G Team* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "geoengineering" group.
