Risky Climate Techno-fixes Blocked
NAGOYA, Japan – In a landmark consensus decision, the 193-member UN Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) will close its tenth biennial meeting with a de facto moratorium on geoengineering projects and experiments. “Any private or public experimentation or adventurism intended to manipulate the planetary thermostat will be in violation of this carefully crafted UN consensus,” stated Silvia Ribeiro, Latin American Director of ETC Group.
I totally agree with this!
The agreement, reached during the ministerial portion of the two-week meeting which included 110 environment ministers, asks governments to ensure that no geoengineering activities take place until risks to the environmental and biodiversity and associated social, cultural and economic impacts risks have been appropriately considered as well as the socio-economic impacts.
The CBD secretariat was also instructed to report back on various geoengineering proposals and potential intergovernmental regulatory measures.
Proposals!
The unusually strong consensus decision builds on the 2008 moratorium on ocean fertilization. That agreement, negotiated at COP 9 in Bonn,
put the brakes on a litany of failed “experiments” – both public and private – [
Oh, oh, oh, so they have been spraying after all, are the nerds right???] to sequester atmospheric carbon dioxide in the oceans’ depths
by spreading nutrients on the sea surface [
Oh keh...ocean surface, NOT densely populated areas, Phew!]. Since then, attention has turned to a range of futuristic
proposals [
not experients per se], to block a percentage of solar radiation via large-scale interventions in the atmosphere, stratosphere and outer space that would alter global temperatures and precipitation patterns.
“This decision clearly places the governance of geoengineering in the United Nations where it belongs,” said ETC Group Executive Director Pat Mooney.
“This decision is a victory for common sense, and for precaution. It will not inhibit legitimate scientific research. Decisions on geoengineering cannot be made by small groups of scientists from a small group of countries that establish self-serving ‘voluntary guidelines’ on climate hacking. What little credibility such efforts may have had in some policy circles in the global North has been shattered by this decision. The UK Royal Society and its partners should cancel their Solar Radiation Management Governance Initiative and respect that the world’s governments have collectively decided that future deliberations on geoengineering should take place in the UN, where all countries have a seat at the table and where civil society can watch and influence what they are doing.”
Delegates in Nagoya have now clearly understood the potential threat that deployment – or even
field testing – [
field testing, not daily flyovers by massive jets!] of geoengineering technologies poses to the protection of biodiversity. The decision was hammered out in long and difficult late night sessions of a “Friends of the chair” group, attended by ETC Group, and adopted by the Working Group 1 Plenary on 27 October 2010. The Chair of the climate and biodiversity negotiations called the final text “a highly delicate compromise.” All that remains to do now is gavel it through in the final plenary at 6 PM Friday (Nagoya time).
“The decision is not perfect,” said Neth Dano of ETC Group Philippines. “Some delegations are understandably concerned that the interim definition of geoengineering is too narrow because it does not include Carbon Capture and Storage technologies. Before the next CBD meeting, there will be ample opportunity to consider these questions in more detail. But climate techno-fixes are now firmly on the UN agenda and will lead to important debates as the 20th anniversary of the Earth Summit approaches. A change of course is essential, and geoengineering is clearly not the way forward.”
Ok, so what I understand is this:
Geoengineering can be dangerous if applied and should be regulated. I agree with that]
There have been experiments, these involved the ocean, the ocean surface to be specific. Not cities or towns.
Other field studies may have been conducted but that is all they were. Field studies.
Chemtrail 'enthusiasts' however claim that they see these trails day in, day out, over populated areas, in the USA and UK etc. That is not field study, that is a full blown 'attack'.
Last but not least there may be some 'rogue' countries who want to try and do experiments without seeking consent, but what countries would that be??? Poor or rich countries?
Whichever, they would still have to fly their planes over America daily without the Airforce getting suspicious.
WTF.
