From air pollution but its not do anything different moral consequence. If people die as a deliberate act, thats different from consequence of people dying from not putting on enough scrubbers on power plants. They both matter but there is a difference. Most law and philosophy. Those are two of the most prominent acid rain is certainly almost a risk for easy calculations to show the. I think the big concerns are the ones we have in products. Make a more general point, and that is complexity. It seems to me that although for the last 20 years climate scientists have made enormous advances in un...

Fundamentally not change the underlying operation of the program in the house and the senate. Republicans and democrats in the judiciary committees are just in a different place. And so the congress is split, i think, on these two. Last night president obama said to Chris Matthews that, you know, hes planning to make changes. He didnt specify what they were, and as you know, this group at the white house is working on thinking through what those changes might be. Do you have any sense, any predictions about what is likely able to happen, what is politically able to fly on the hill . I think th...

Next david keith and Clive Hamilton debate the idea of scientifically manipulating the merman to address the threat of Global Warming. This is about an hour. Many thanks scott for that introduction and for the invitation to come and debate climate engineering with david here today. I want to talk a little bit about some of the implication but more about the social and political meaning of what it would mean to have a geoengineered planet and i want to draw on a bit of historical experiencexperienc e to get some idea of what that means. Now david has become the foremost advocate of geoengineeri...

Economist Gernot Wagner on a radical solution that’s no longer science fiction

As the impacts of rising temperatures mount and the global transition to clean energy advances only gradually, scientists and policymakers are looking towards carbon dioxide removal (CDR) methods to prevent the worst impacts of climate change. Attention has increasingly focused on ocean CDR techniques, which enhance or restore marine systems to sequester carbon. Ocean CDR research presents the risk of uncertain impacts to human and environmental welfare, yet there are no domestic regulations aimed at ensuring the safety and efficacy of this research. A code of conduct that establishes principl...
