Climate engineering and our climate targets – a long-overdue debate

This publication was produced in 2019 as part of the public outreach work under the DFG Priority Programme, with only minor changes made for the English-language edition compared with the German edition. Its aim is to promote open social and political debate that is informed by the best available knowledge about the possibilities and risks of the various climate engineering ideas.

CDRMIP has been endorsed by CMIP6

The Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP; currently in it's 6th phase) is organized under the auspices of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) and designed to better understand past, present, and future climate change through coordinated international multi-model experiments that have become a central element of national and international assessments of climate change, e.g., IPCC reports.  The Carbon Dioxide Removal Model Intercomparison Project (CDRMIP), which has just been endorsed by CMIP6, brings together models of the Earth system in a common framework to explore the potential, impacts, and challenges of Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR).  CDRMIP experiments are designed to address questions concerning CDR-induced climate "reversibility", the response of the Earth system to direct atmospheric CO₂ removal (direct air capture and storage), and the CDR potential of proposed schemes such as afforestation/reforestation and ocean alkalinization.

SPP 1689 WORKSHOP // 22 – 23 Jan 2018 // Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, A56

Terrestrial CO₂ Removal: Potentials and tradeoffs in the SDG context

This workshop will look into a set of pertinent questions related to potentials of tCDR methods and their interaction with SDGs. It will bring together SPP 1689 researchers and external experts to increase our holistic understanding of global and regional potentials and side-effects of tCDR as well as to identify future research priorities.
