PODCASTS
Solar Geoengineering: The potential & governance. What to know | Ecosystemic Futures
"In this episode, our hosts Chris Potter and Marco Annunziata sit down with International Environmental Policy expert Jesse Reynolds to discuss the capabilities and limitations of solar geoengineering, and where we go from here."
C2GTalk: How should policy makers address the risk of climate tipping points? | C2G Carnegie Climate Governance Initiative

“Climate tipping points are points of no return, beyond which the Earth’s systems would reorganize beyond the capacity of socioeconomic and ecological systems to adapt, warns Jo Tyndall, in a new C2GTalk. Policymakers need to do more to address these risks now, including through support for carbon dioxide removal technologies - accounting for both opportunities and challenges. While solar radiation modification is not currently feasible, more research is needed. Jo Tyndall is Director, Environment Directorate at the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) where she oversees the implementation of the Directorate’s programme of work, covering a broad range of environmental issues, including: green growth; climate change; biodiversity; quality of ecosystems; eco-innovation; circular economy; and, resource productivity.”
