Road to a Remade Sky Substack

[Gideon Futerman]

Dear All,

I have started a substack (Road to a Remade Sky) laying out my personal process of constructing a "road map" for how SRM research relates to downstream actions. The blog is a pretty important, albeit quite strange, academic project for me, and I hope to show the reader my thought processes, ideas around SRM and how the ecosystem functions, and construct a model of how near term actions may effect downstream consequences.

My first blog of the substack is an introduction to me, my intellectual influences, as well as an in depth exploration of my views on SRM. I hope you enjoy!

I think it's really awesome you're doing this, Gideon.

At the moment, there's something of a lack of critical reflective commentary by researchers in the field on how their views have changed over time in light of changing evidence and new or more developed arguments from various areas, so discussing the tension you describe and how that might relate to the downstream effects of SRM research is definitely valuable. I commend your intellectual honesty around the topic!

Particularly on the topic of existential & global catastrophic risk and how SRM may or may not have the potential to reduce it, there's a massive need for more thinking and discussion on that. Kudos!
