Poster's note : quite amazing that the aerosol loading from a apocalyptic
supervolcano is still not enough to sort out projected AGW. Gives an
intuitive sense of how deep we're in it. :-(

Impact of an extremely large magnitude
Dear Alexander:
Wonderful. My guess is that Geo will be a very big deal as ideas propagate and
as nations begin to accept Geo research as legitimate and needed. I am
surprised you don't have the Russian experiments listed. Maybe I missed them.
The best,

Alexandercc list:
Can you clarify whether you are inquiring about A) geoengineering (both SRM
and CD) or B) solar geoengineering.
Also whether you are also interested in the amount of private sector
research funding that is going into A) and/or B). And is total funding or RD
Bill - thanks. I'm not aware of ongoing funding for the Russian
experiments, but if you're aware of that, I'd be more than happy to
incorporate it.
Ron - my impression (partly based on the GAO report I pointed to in my
previous email) is that there's considerably more funding for CDR research
My understanding is that the Carneige Institute has an effective research
funding programme, and they are set up to take donations from US donors.
Unfortunately, European donors cannot give yet in a tax efficient fashion,
AFAIK.
I've always been able to direct enquiries to Irene, see cc.

Dear Alexander,
These are interesting lists. There are a couple more grants that could
be added to your list:
1. NSF Climate Dynamics, ATM-0730452, Collaborative Research in
Evaluation of Suggestions to Geoengineer the Climate System Using
Stratospheric Aerosols and Sun Shading, February
