Folks, There is some discussion in DC about making some small amount of public funds available to support SRM and CDR research. In today's funding climate, it is much more likely that someone might be given authority to re-allocate existing budgets than that they would actually be given

Hi I'd focus on clarifying SRM capabilities. For that money, we can make test scale deployments of sulfur aerosols, bright water and cloud brightening. At present our understanding of the basic science of all of these is poor, so engineering appropriate delivery technology is much less relevant

Broad RFPs for multi-year consortia -- maybe four three-year $5million grants to begin with. Define the goals that the research should support -- eg development and assessment of a 1W/m^2 (global average) SRM technology -- not the technologies that should be used. Provide a way for the scoring
