Hello! I bring to you a small
list of recent
videos on the topics of Geoengineering.
Enjoy! Hope we all have a great week
Christopher Trisos: The key messages regarding Solar Radiation Modification (SRM)
by C2G Carnegie Climate Governance Initiative
This presentation explores the key messages regarding Solar Radiation Modification (SRM): from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) working group II contribution to the sixth assessment report, ‘Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability’. Dr Christopher Trisos directs the Climate Risk Lab (
https://climaterisklab.com/) at the African Climate and Development Initiative, based at University of Cape Town. The Climate Risk Lab integrates data and methods from environmental and social sciences to advance understanding of climate change risks to health, economies, food systems and ecosystems and to help inform more rapid, just and equitable responses to climate change.

2nd Gobeshona: Governance of Solar Radiation Modification: Challenges and Opportunities for LDCs
by C2G Carnegie Climate Governance Initiative
The Carnegie Climate Governance Initiative (C2G) organized the 2nd Gobeshona Global Conference to raise awareness and understanding among actors from the Least Development Countries (LDCs) of solar radiation modification (SRM) techniques, the governance challenges they present and challenges as to how to compare use and non-use of SRM scenarios to support decision making, and to explore how to enable further learning and capacity building.
Saleemul Huq: Why must the governance of SRM include least developed countries?
by C2G Carnegie Climate Governance Initiative
Saleemul Huq, Director, International Centre for Climate Change & Development (ICCCAD) and Professor at the Independent University Bangladesh (IUB) as well as Associate of the International Institute on Environment and Development (IIED) in the United Kingdom. In addition he is the Chair of the Expert Advisory Group for the Climate Vulnerable Forum (CVF) and also Senior Adviser on Locally Led Adaptation with Global Centre on Adaptation (GCA) headquartered in the Netherlands.
C2GTalk: Should the world consider solar radiation modification in light of the latest IPCC findings
by C2G Carnegie Climate Governance Initiative
More research and better governance is needed to help developing countries make decisions about solar radiation modification (SRM), says Thelma Krug, Vice-Chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) during a C2GTalk
SRM has come into focus due to a likely overshoot of the 1.5C warming goal, which would bring increasing risks to people and natural ecosystems, and - depending on the length and extent of overshoot - potentially irreversible impacts.
Thelma Krug is a former researcher at the Earth Observation Coordination at the National Institute for Space Research in Brazil, under the Ministry of Science, Technology, Innovation and Communication (MCTIC). She was elected Vice-Chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) for the Sixth Cycle of Panel (October 2015 – October 2022), after having been co-chair of the IPCC Task Force on National Greenhouse Gas Inventories from 2002 until 2015.
