Every climate communicator should listen to this interview with @Revkin. Challenging thinking about #climaterisk, #vulnerabilityemergency, #narrativecapture +++ Thanks for this great episode, @ChalClimate! #scicomm
One thing we loved about our discussion with @Revkin from @columbiaclimate was picking his brain on big climate questions. Here’s his take on ‘Is 1.5ºC still alive?’.
Catch the full discussion:

I learned a bunch from @ChalClimate podcast's latest episode on the Great Barrier Reef.
It's an interview with @FlyingOceanDr on the possibility that cloud brightening might reduce coral bleaching during the now-inevitable period overshooting 1.5°C.

Developing world research into #SRM #geoengineering just doubled!
My latest substack gives some reflections on the announcement from @DegreesNGO and my reactions to meeting the new teams in Istanbul in January.

🚨Big #SRM News 🚨
The @DegreesNGO has just doubled the amount of research on #SRM in the global south!
Developing nations will be most affected by SRM and will need to develop views on it which will require home-grown expertise. This is an important step towards that.
📢We are announcing the doubling of our #solarradiationmodification (SRM) modelling research teams across the Global South!

The @FlyingOceanDr of @SCUonline spoke to @ChalClimate about how Marine Cloud Brightening might help protect the Great Barrier Reef from rising temperatures
He also discussed other ideas to protect the reef and his work on the first #SRM field test

I enjoyed this @ChalClimate conversation between @jesselreynolds @peteirvine and @H4wkm0th.
A good reminder, when you're in Model Land, to always know where the exits are.

"The world runs on models" 🌍
Dr Erica Thompson appeared on the Challenging Climate podcast to discuss the use of data and models to inform real-world decision-making.

In the latest episode of @ChalClimate we spoke with @H4wkm0th about her new book: "Escape from Model Land: how mathematical models can lead us astray and what we can do about it" and its implications for climate change

This is one of the main risks that I worried about re: @MakeSunsets – that their cavalier attitude would prompt a public and policy backlash.
This concern was put squarely to the founder on @ChalClimate, where he dismissed it. Oops.
BREAKING:
Following the launch of an unauthorized experiment, the Mexican government has announced a ban on future #SolarGeoengineering.
CIEL welcomes the step. We call on all governments to ban solar geoengineering outdoor experiments, technology development, and deployment.

I think this was the most jaw-dropping quote from our interview with the founder of the for-profit solar #geoengineering

Replying to @ChalClimate
"I hope that ... island states, decide that in fact their situation is so desperate that they will allow us to launch from their space with their blessing. And ideally my dream is that the @CocaCola's of the world pay for this technology via their net zero commitments.” 6/9

Excellent podcast and great way to learn more about the ethics of geoengineering research.
Our two solar geoengineering experts discuss their concerns about for-profit solar geoengineering start-up @MakeSunsets with its founder @liseman

Very useful and worthwhile discussion on the perils, motivations, and "thought process" of the whole @MakeSunsets endeavor.

Our interesting conversation with Luke Iseman of Make Sunsets is now available, at your favorite podcast platform and here: challengingclimate.org/18735…
In our next episode we interview @liseman of @MakeSunsets, the solar geoengineering start-up that is launching modified weather balloons to release sulphur dioxide into the stratosphere for the purpose of selling “cooling credits”
Coming Tuesday...

Loving it thanks again @peteirvine. Definitely filling some big gaps for me. I like that it is quite science/policy content heavy which is a nice compliment to the other broader person oriented podcasts I know. Episode 25 with Patric Brown had some pretty sobering truths!
Challenging Climate retweeted
In Episode 25, @PatrickTBrown31 from @TheBTI speaks on his concerns about applying 'fraction of attributable risk' to climate issues.

The DEGREES initiative is the most important thing going on in solar geoengineering
This project supports developing world researchers and is working to put the developing world at the forefront of the assessment of solar geoengineering.
