Food justice, food security, and climate engineering

T. Kortetmäki

Abstract:

This chapter provides the contextual outline and introduction to the keynote talk on climate engineering, food security, and justice. Instead of summarising the talk as a whole, the chapter focuses on introducing the background research that is essential for constructing arguments with relation to the topic. The first section introduces climate engineering, followed by a description of different methods to it, and the existing scientific findings on the connections between climate engineering and food security. The summation articulates the main starting points for reasoning about climate engineering and justice from the viewpoint of food security.

Keywords: climate change, solar radiation management, carbon dioxide removal
