Bonn side event starts now - debating climate engineering and #unfccc #sb40 Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research @helixclimate
Transparency and international cooperation- key for climate engineering governance #unfccc #sb40 Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research
Climate engineering governance- crucial principles and stepping stones to guide it already exist at global and EU level #SB40 Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research
Mitigation, adaptation and CE are different responses to climate change but the distinction between them can be fuzzy #sb40 Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research
Effectiveness and side effects of all CE techniques are very uncertain- Hauke Schmidt at the Bonn side event #UNFCCC #SB40 Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research
Why focus on SRM? though research shows it might be effective, big risks, uncertainties and "unknown unknowns" emerge #SB40 Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research
Developing countries not yet as involved in CE debate-SRMGI hosting events in Pakistan, Senegal, and others #sb40 #SRMGI Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research
Adequate conversations on climate engineering need to involve ethicists, policy makers, scientists, the public #SB40 #UNFCCC Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research
CE doesn't offer an alternative to mitigation and should not distract from these efforts Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research #SB40 #UNFCCC
What does CE mean for the future? Climate Engineering Conference in Berlin August 18-21 Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research #SB40 #UNFCCC
