Abstract

Climate change poses grave risks to food security, and mitigation and
adaptation actions have so far been insufficient to lessen the risk of
climate-induced violations of the right to food. Could safeguarding the
right to food, then, justify some forms of geoengineering? This article
examines geoengineering through the analytical lens of the right to food.
We look at the components of food security and consider how the
acceptability of geoengineering relates to the right to food via its
impacts on these components. Our examination shows that results vary
greatly between different forms of geoengineering: while some forms of
geoengineering fail to respect the right to food, certain other forms may
even become obligatory to protect the right to food. It appears that there
is no support for aerosol-based solar radiation management, whereas some
carbon dioxide removal methods can help protect or promote the right to
food. The ethical challenges related to carbon dioxide removal methods are,
we note, similar to those that will also be faced in the course of climate
change mitigation.
