'Reynolds has written the go-to guide to solar geoengineering governance. Sober, balanced, and comprehensive - essential reading for proponents and skeptics alike.' Daniel Bodansky, Arizona State University 'As we encounter increasingly severe climate change impacts, the world is likely to consider solar geoengineering. This book lays out governance considerations that the technologies would instigate. As Reynolds suggests, we should pay attention to these issues, including the necessary norm building and international cooperation, sooner rather than later.' Jane Long, former Associate Director for Energy and Environment, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory 'Some forms of solar geoengineering (also known as solar radiation modification) would require unprecedented international governance. As interest rises in these technologies, governments and non-state actors should address the governance challenge now, before events potentially overtake. Reynolds' book is a timely contribution to a more informed global discussion.'
