"....others insist that the current global order is so unjust that [climate]
interventions are highly likely to be illegitimate and exacerbate injustice."
How will legitimacy and justice be advanced if non-geoengineering methods
continue to prove inadequate, and unproven fears about geo and esp CDR
deployment continue to go untested (because of those fears)?Greg

Book DescriptionIn the face of limited time and escalating impacts, some
scientists and politicians are talking about attempting "grand technological
interventions" into the Earth’s basic physical and biological systems
("geoengineering") to combat global warming. Early ideas include spraying
particles into the stratosphere to block some incoming sunlight, or "enhancing"
natural biological systems to withdraw carbon dioxide from the atmosphere at a
higher rate. Such technologies are highly speculative and scientific
development of them has barely begun.
Nevertheless, it is widely recognized that geoengineering raises critical
questions about who will control planetary interventions, and what
responsibilities they will have. Central to these questions are issues of
justice and political legitimacy. For instance, while some claim that climate
risks are so severe that geoengineering must be attempted, others insist that
the current global order is so unjust that interventions are highly likely to
be illegitimate and exacerbate injustice. Such concerns are rarely discussed in
the policy arena in any depth, or with academic rigor. Hence, this book gathers
contributions from leading voices and rising stars in political philosophy to
respond. It is essential reading for anyone puzzled about how geoengineering
might promote or thwart the ends of justice in a dramatically changing world.
The chapters in this book were originally published in the journals: Ethics,
Policy & the Environment and Critical Review of International Social and
Political Philosophy.
