Ocean heat is off the charts—here's what that means for humans and ecosystems around the world UPCOMING EVENTS The 21st International Conference on Nucleation & Atmospheric Aerosols by QUT School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences and Centre for the Environment | 26-30 June 2023 The Geoengineering Model Intercomparison Project (GeoMIP) 2023 meeting | 3-7 July 2023 (NEW) Conference—Solar Geoengineering Futures: Current Research and Uncertainties by Resources for the Future (RFF) | 28-29 September 2023 Climate Engineering (GRS) | 17-18 February 2024 GRC Climate Engineering 2024 | February 18-23, 2024 YOUTUBE VIDEOS Oliver Morton on Geoengineering, with Healthy Planet Action Coalition 29 June 2023 | Robbie Tulip “Oliver Morton, the veteran British science journalist and author of several books, including an excellent book on geoengineering, is guest speaker at the HPAC meeting on 29 June 2023  Oliver’s 2008 classic The Planet Remade is as fresh and provocative as ever.  The Planet Remade: How Geoengineering Could Change the World. In addition to discussion on the politics, ethics, science and technology of geoengineering, Oliver draws on his long experience as an editor and journalist with The Economist to provide useful ideas and direction for advocacy work.” Solar Climate Intervention Virtual Symposium 5 (Prof Abolfazl Rezaei & Brendan Clark) | Solar Climate Intervention Talks “Prof Abolfazl Rezaei (Institute for Advanced Studies in Basic Sciences (IASBS), Iran) : Changes in Ocean-Atmosphere Circulations in Response to Global Warming and Stratosphere Aerosol Intervention. Brendan Clark (Rutgers, USA) : The Optimal Climate Intervention Scenario for Crop Production Varies by Nation.” European Commission calls for international discussions on risks of climate engineering | Euronews “The technology has attracted attention recently as countries fail to curb their greenhouse gas emissions.” There's a playlist with videos on the Solar Geoengineering topic, you can check it out here: DEADLINES Call for Proposals: DMF Grants for Central America & Mexico | Deadline: 31 July 2023 Call for Abstract Submission: GC100 - Solar Radiation Modification for Climate Intervention at Fall AGU Meeting | 2 August 2023 JOB OPPORTUNITY Communications Manager at the Degrees Initiative | Remote | Deadline: 15 July 2023 “The Degrees Initiative is a UK-based NGO that builds the capacity of developing countries to evaluate solar radiation modification geoengineering (SRM). We believe that the Global South needs home-grown evidence and expertise to influence this critical debate. After ten years as a project housed within other organisations, Degrees has registered as a UK charity and is in a phase of ambitious expansion.”
