One would hope that the DECIMALS researchers would also look at whether
1.5 to 2 C is a workable target temperature to be aiming at. Given that
sea level rose 120 meters as the global average temperature rose
something like 6 C coming out of the Last Glacial Maximum and there was
very little po
Dear all,
I totally agree with Andy. SRM research is as vital as was nuclear

vaccinations. The first are likely to affect the life of millions
