Over the past months, we have explored the viability of geoengineering techniques that are receiving traction, from stratospheric aerosols to CCS. Throughout the blog, my standpoint for SRM and CDR has developed. From yes! SRM could work. To no, it tackles the disease not...

Undoubtedly, climate change is one of the greatest issues facing humanity, however, this is not our only concern as shown by the nine planetary boundaries developed in 2015. Arguably climate change is something we can't solve in our lifetime. But we can address novel entities like marine plastics - a concept yet to be defined.
Marine...

In a world where Donald Trump has continuously disregarded climate change, and coal consumption is once again #1. It is easy to feel downhearted. But, it's not all doom and gloom! YOU CAN tackle climate change by reducing your carbon footprint.
1. Walk, Bike or use Public Transport
In 2016, the transport sector in the UK accounted...

Following COP21, nations largely in Europe are exploring the viability of deploying Bio-energy with CCS (BECCS) (ie. the UK, Finland, Sweden & USA). However, this change 'saviour' just won't work!
BECCS is touted as carbon-negative but many assumptions are made....

To meet targets, we must stop emitting GHGs by 2050. However scepticism around meeting the desired 1.5C is increasing, many believe this can only be achieved using CDR negative emission technologies like Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS) and Bio-Energy with CCS (BECCS), mentioned in over 80% of IPCC pathways to emissions reductions.
There...

We need CDR geoengineering,here's why:
The Climate-Interactive simulations developed by the Massachusetts Institute for Technology, engage the public in climate change discussions. It illustrates the challenges in negotiating a comprehensive agreement that meets 2C agreed temperature increase (COP16) and...
