TL;DR: An in-depth assessment of the role of NETs in climate change mitigation scenarios, their ethical implications, as well as the challenges involved in bringing the various NETs to the market and scaling them up in time are clarified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Living the global social experiment : an analysis of public discourse on solar radiation management and its implications for governance.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine current debates on solar radiation management governance, clarifying a number of assumptions that persist and why these require further scrutiny, and articulate a more critical role that the social sciences should be playing in public engagement with solar radiation managements.

TL;DR: The authors provided a frame-work for viewing and understanding the human perspective on climate change, focusing on ethics and economics; and to define climate change from a social perspective. But they did not consider the economic perspective.

TL;DR: This work explores the particular manner in which the possibility of intentionally altering the Earth’s climate system to curb global warming has been incorporated into the field of ‘public engagement with science’.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mapping the landscape of climate engineering.
TL;DR: It is concluded that bibliometric monitoring techniques can play an important role in the anticipatory governance of climate engineering.
