Academics who advocate geoengineering get hounded out of office, as Prof Stephen Salter will attest. It doesn’t matter if it’s only to brighten some marine clouds (as ships were doing pre-SO2 regulation). It’s taboo and dangerous. So, the actuaries are presumably unaware of what could be possible. So, someone needs to tell them..? About two years ago I suggested a presentation to be named “Climate Solutions with Legs.. and Clothes” but people were mystified. Maybe now’s the time.

Its three stage action plan is 'to estimate how GHGs emissions will change in the future', then to assess 'how much warming will be driven by a certain level of GHGs and how quickly this warming will happen', and finally 'to estimate how much damage these physical risks will inflict'. Can someone please explain to me why actuaries, with the invaluable help of Tim Lenton (who as far as I'm is not an actuary) have zero interest in anything that might reduce the damage? One obvious answer to that question is that they agree with me, that we haven't got the communal wit to do so, so we'd best plan for it to be as bad as it could be!
