Might research on solar geoengineering resemble its broader “free-driver” dynamics?

Moving to Economics 102 often reverses fundamental Econ 101 answers around cutting carbon emissions. Might the same be true—in reverse—when moving from Solar Geoengineering 101 to 102?

The Implications of Uncertainty and Ignorance for Solar Geoengineering

Where climate change and solar geoengineering are concerned, errors of commission and omission should be weighted equally.

We Need to Talk About Geoengineering

Although climate change is primarily caused by excess greenhouse-gas emissions, there are many links in the chain between economic activities and the real-world effects of planetary warming. Each of these can be addressed in different ways, and all options should at least be on the table.

Fear of Geoengineering Is Really Anxiety About Cutting Carbon

Research into unproven technofixes isn’t a replacement for eliminating emissions, even if the debate over geoengineering is stuck on that concern.

Availability of risky geoengineering can make an ambitious climate mitigation agreement more likely

A simple model of climate negotiations shows how the mere threat of risky geoengineering might help induce a high-mitigation agreement.

Why It Matters

Green Moral Hazards

The core question is whether any kind of technofix that sustains fossil-fueled capitalism and the status quo can be considered “green.”
