What we have learned about Biochar since 2011?
By Biofuelwatch In 2011 Biofuelwatch published Biochar: A Critical Review of Science and Policy. In that report we highlighted the uncertainties about biochar including the large land area that would be required to supply biomass for a global scale impact, the...
Geoengineering in 2019: a recap
In the last year, geoengineering proponents have been normalizing this technofix at an alarmingly rapid pace. An emboldened geo-clique has attempted to rebrand geoengineering as "climate restoration" or "climate repair" as part of a larger push. In February, we...
Field Trials, Schemes and Calls for Transparency: November Geoengineering Updates
by Anja Chalmin Recent Geoengineering research activities In mid-September, a US$ 110 million U.S. Federal Support Programme for CCUS1 was announced by the United States Department of Energy (US-DOE)’s Office of Fossil Energy. The funding...

Quarterly Review I (part 2): Solar radiation management – new field trials, research projects and funding – and growing opposition
By Anja Chalmin Part two of this first quarterly review 2022 looks at new plans and funding for solar radiation management (SRM) field trials and research activities - and there are even ideas that stretch into space. Currently, five SRM field...
Quarterly Review I (part 1): Weather modification – current developments and lessons learned after 70 years of deployment
By Anja Chalmin The new year has begun with new geoengineering approaches, plans, research activities and funding spanning all natural environments - land, sea and air - and there are even ideas that stretch into space. Regardless of the natural environment in which...
Quarterly Review IV: Open ocean trials and further developments in geoengineering in the marine environment
By Anja ChalminThe last quarter of 2021 saw the announcement of a number of new geoengineering experiments, as well as commercial and research projects that impact the marine environment, including geoengineering approaches that aim to manage solar radiation, brighten...
