Research questions

• Research methodology: anticipate potential future of climate engineering (CE) to assess present
  avenues
• If CE is done, how could it be regulated, how could some party doing CE be held liable?
• Which type of regulation can set (economic) incentives to conduct carbon dioxide removal, while
  avoiding negative ecosystem effects?
• Is it possible to establish a scientific basis for helding someone liable for adverse effects of solar
  radiation management (SRM) on others? (this includes detection and attribution)
• How can the diverging interests of different parties be aligned by means of a regulatory system
  for SRM, including regional climate engineering?
