C2G Issues Call for Papers for Global Policy

12 July, 2019  – The Carnegie Climate Governance Initiative (C2G) and Global Policy are collaborating to produce a Special Issue focusing on the governance of emerging climate technologies: Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) and Solar Radiation Modification (SRM). The issue is planned for launch in May 2020, allowing time for published articles to be considered in the literature review for the sixth assessment report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC-AR6).

Original papers are invited from authors from all backgrounds and interests to address the governance of these technologies and methods. We define governance (in line with the IPCC) to broadly include the means for deciding, managing, implementing and monitoring policies and measures, and the participation of different stakeholders in these. Some examples of the issues that papers might consider addressing include:

• Presenting new concepts or ideas about technologies, including so-called Nature-Based Solutions and the related governance challenges;
• Addressing knowledge gaps around governance of CDR/SRM in relation to biodiversity and ecosystems services (e.g. see this C2G brief on knowledge gaps in relation to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD));
• Governance of related research;
• An exploration of governance at subnational, national, regional and international scale;
• Transdisciplinary, thematic or stakeholder perspectives on governance;
• Taking a world view of critical areas of global concern such as the Arctic; High mountain regions; Small islands; etc.;
• Governing large-scale CDR (e.g. see this C2G paper on CDR governance readiness)
• Addressing knowledge gaps around governance of CDR/SRM in relation to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) (e.g. see recommendations of C2G report on SDGs);
• Reviews of existing research and/or governance debate.

All papers will be subject to the journal’s usual independent peer review process.

Please submit 200-word Abstracts (including proposed title), accompanied by the name of the author(s), author(s) institutional affiliation, link to any related publications by the author(s), and contact email address(es) for consideration by no later than 26th July 2019.

Disappointing that CDR continues to be thrown into the same governance pot as SRM.  If you are going to go that far, why not be comprehensive and govern emission reduction too, or why does that get a free pass?

Also interesting that "so-called Nature-Based Solutions" are now view as a "governance challenges".  Has anyone established that natural/restoration CDR needs governing? Good to find out before those trillion trees get planted: https://phys.org/news/2019-07-climate-trillion-trees.html

Afforestation/reforestation plans assuredly need governance. Our experience with REDD+ demonstrates that there’s serious social justice issues that often arise in terms of where such projected are sited, and at what scale. Moreover, someone on the list last week posted an interesting piece about opposition to the KINDS of trees being planted in one European country, suggesting a need for more citizen engagement in the front end of planning processes, which is assuredly a governance question.

 

And, of course, the crafting of MRV protocols are governance questions of the first degree. There’s also a lot of questions associated with soil-based plans. So, I think it’s laudatory that C2G2 is including these options in the mix. wil

Hi Will,

Can't C2G2 make two separate reports for SRM and for CDR-GGR?

Best,

Renaud
