This lecture covers the governance challenges and approaches for Solar Radiation Modification (SRM) and Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) in the context of climate change. It discusses the need for effective governance, the outcomes of COP26, terminology related to climate-altering approaches, and the potential risks of SRM. The lecture also explores the role of governance beyond governments, the different nature-based and technological approaches for CDR, and the key governance questions surrounding SRM. It emphasizes the importance of international cooperation, risk management, and the necessity for a comprehensive framework to address the challenges of climate engineering.
