Описание: What if the people seized the means of climate production?
Описание: Geoengineering is the deliberate and large-scale intervention in the Earth's climate system in an attempt to mitigate the adverse effects of global warming. Now that climate emergency is upon us, claims that geoengineering is inevitable are rapidly proliferating. How did we get into this situation where the most extreme path now seems a plausible development? Is it an accurate representation of where we are at? Who is this "we" who is talking? What options make it onto the table? Which are left out? Whom does geoengineering serve? Why is the ensemble of projects that goes by that name so salient, even though the community of researchers and advocates is remarkably small? These are some of the questions that the thinkers contributing to this volume are exploring from perspectives ranging from sociology and geography to ethics and Indigenous studies. The editors set out this diverse collection of voices not as a monolithic, unified take on geoengineering, but as a place where creative thinkers, students, and interested environmental and social justice advocates can explore nuanced ideas in more than 240 characters.
Описание: If geoengineering continues unabated, and the ozone layer is completely destroyed, it will be game over for us all. No ozone layer = no life on Earth. It's that simple. Geoengineering is tearing apart the entire fabric of life on our planet. Geoengineering is poisoning our air, waters, and soils. Geoengineering is pushing increasingly erratic atmospheric processes resulting from human-propelled climate change past the Chaos threshold into unpredictable, self-reinforcing, cascading events. Geoengineering is disrupting the jet stream and all natural weather patterns, which in turn is fueling catastrophic climate feedback loops, the direst of which are mass methane hydrate releases from the Arctic tundra and sea floor. Geoengineering is destroying the stratospheric solar radiation shielding, which protects all life on Earth. Geoengineering is disrupting the jet stream and all natural weather patterns, which in turn is fueling catastrophic climate feedback loops- the direst of which are mass methane hydrate releases from the Arctic tundra and sea floor. Geoengineering is destroying the stratospheric solar radiation shielding, which protects all life on Earth. Much of the material presented is unknown to most and many should find the information extremely disturbing. Because geoengineering is rarely reported by mainstream media, this does not mean it is not occurring. Simply it means we all have been purposely and deliberately kept in the dark while geoengineering activities have been occurring for decades in the light of day, in plain sight, over all our heads, as the evidence presented in this book will conclusively show. I worked for 25 years as an analyst on Wall Street and I can personally attest to those that are in power spend an inordinate amount of time, resources and energy, to make sure that no one usurps their power base. This is why the Morgan, Rockefeller, Gates, etc. foundations have controlled education and media for so long and so well. Truth be told, not sold, technology is much more highly advanced than we are told. It is a little-known fact that DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, introduced the internet to the public in 1995. If we can access Wi-Fi technology on airplanes for our computers, what do you think the military can do with such technology they had developed decades before the internet was released to the public? Additionally, the nanoparticle industry is now a $1 Trillion-dollar industry. Nano technology is so small it cannot be seen by the naked eye and is 80 times smaller than the width of a hair and is totally unregulated and undisclosed technology that is in our foods, released into the air and in vaccines. People of Earth have a right to know that chemicals and smart dust carrying mind control technologies are being sprayed in our skies, with harmful known and unknown effects to all Life. The main purpose of this book to educate, alert and inform those who wish to learn some of the most inconvenient truths ever told, and to sound the alarm, to not only get our governments to openly disclose such practices, but to educate the public so that all Geoengineering activities can be halted immediately before it is too late for all Earth's inhabitants. Earth is out of balance now, yet it is her Nature to seek balance. This book has proof of Universities offering Geoengineering courses, companies contracted out to aerosol spray for governments and military as well as over 150 patents.

Описание:
Even by the scientists most closely associated with it, geoengineering - the deliberate intervention in the climate at global scale to mitigate the effects of climate change - is perceived to be risky. For all its potential benefits, there are robust differences of opinion over the wisdom of such an intervention.
Systems Thinking for Geoengineering Policy is the first book to theorise geoengineering in terms of complex adaptive systems theory and to argue for the theoretical imperative of adaptive management as the default methodology for an effective low risk means of confronting the inescapable uncertainty and surprise that characterise potential climate futures. The book illustrates how a shift from the conventional Enlightenment paradigm of linear reductionist thinking, in favour of systems thinking, would promote policies that are robust against the widest range of plausible futures rather than optimal only for the most likely, and also unlock the policy paralysis caused by making long term predictions of policy outcomes a prior condition for policy formulation. It also offers some systems driven reflections on a global governance network for geoengineering.
This book is a valuable resource for all those with an interest in climate change policy, geoengineering, and CAS theory, including academics, under- and postgraduate students and policymakers.

Описание: A rhetorical exploration of an underexamined side of climate change—the ongoing research into and development of geoengineering strategiesGeoengineering, Persuasion, and the Climate Crisis: A Geologic Rhetoric exposes the deeply worrying state of discourse over geoengineering—the intentional manipulation of the earth’s climate as means to halt or reverse global warming. These climate-altering projects, which range from cloud-whitening to carbon dioxide removal and from stratospheric aerosol injection to enhanced weathering, are all technological solutions to more complex geosocial problems Geoengineering represents one of the most alarming forms of deliberative discourse in the twenty-first century. Yet geoengineering could easily generate as much harm as the environmental traumas it seeks to cure. Complicating these deliberations is the scarcity of public discussion. Most deliberations transpire within policy groups, behind the closed doors of climate-oriented startups, between subject-matter experts at scientific conferences, or in the disciplinary jargon of research journals. Further, much of this conversation occurs primarily in the West. Ehren Helmut Pflugfelder makes clear how the deliberative rhetorical strategies coming from geoengineering advocates have been largely deceptive, hegemonic, deterministic, and exploitative. In this volume, he investigates how geoengineering proponents marshal geologic actors into their arguments—and how current discourse could lead to a greater exploitation of the earth in the future. Pflugfelder’s goal is to understand the structure, content, purpose, and effect of these discourses, raise the alarm about their deliberative directions, and help us rethink our approach to the climate. In highlighting both the inherent problems of the discourses and the ways geologic rhetoric can be made productive, he attempts to give “the geologic” a place at the table to better understand the roles that all earth systems continue to play in our lives, now and for years to come.

Описание: In this book, eleven prominent authorities on climate change consider the legal, policy and philosophical issues presented by geoengineering. The book asks: when, if ever, are decisions to embark on climate modification projects justified? If they are justified, in a world without a central governing authority, who should authorize such projects and by what moral and legal right?

Описание:
This book takes a critical look at solar geoengineering as an acceptable means for addressing climate change. Baskin explores the assumptions and imaginaries which animate ‘engineering the climate’ and discusses why this climate solution is so controversial. The book explains geoengineering’s past, its revival in the mid-2000s, and its future prospects including its shadow presence in the Paris climate accord. The main focus however is on dissecting solar geoengineering today – its rationales, underpinning knowledge, relationship to power, and the stance towards nature which accompanies it. Baskin explores three competing imaginaries associated with geoengineering: an Imperial imaginary, an oppositional Un-Natural imaginary, and a conspiratorial Chemtrail imaginary. He seeks to explain why solar geoengineering has struggled to gain approval and why resistance to it persists, despite the support of several powerful actors. He provocatively suggests that reconceptualising our present as the Anthropocene might unwittingly facilitate the normalisation of geoengineering by providing a sustaining socio-technical imaginary. This book is essential reading for those interested in climate policy, political ecology, and science & technology studies.
