A combined mitigation/geoengineering approach to climate stabilization.
Projected anthropogenic warming and increases in CO2 concentration present a twofold threat, both from climate changes and from CO2 directly through increasing the acidity of the oceans. Future climate change may be reduced through mitigation (reductions in greenhouse gas emissions) or through geoengineering. Most geoengineering approaches, however, do not address the problem of increasing ocea...
متن کاملAnimal Production in a Changing Climate: Impacts and Mitigation
The indirect effects of climate driven changes in animal performance result mainly from alterations in the nutritional environment. Research suggests that changes in climate would affect the quality and quantity of forage produced (5, 41). The impact of climate change on pastures and rangelands may include deterioration of pasture quality towards poorer quality subtropical C4 grasses in tempera...
متن کاملMitigation and the Geoengineering Threat
Recent scientific advances have introduced the possibility of engineering the climate system to lower ambient temperatures without lowering greenhouse gas concentrations. This possibility has created an intense debate given the ethical, moral and scientific questions it raises. This paper examines the economic issues introduced when geoengineering becomes available in a standard two-period two-...
متن کاملCan carbon cycle geoengineering be a useful complement to ambitious climate mitigation ?
Intentional climate modification at a global scale – geoengineering – would probably be very risky, and perhaps even dangerous. Many negative consequences of geoengineering have already been predicted [1,2], and it is very likely that there will be unforeseen environmental consequences that may only emerge after geoengineering is enacted [3]. Indeed, I have argued previously that the net impact...
