Environmental risks / benefits

Version published: 
  • Zeitler and Brunell (2024) began adapting a Performance Assessment methodology as an initial risk assessment framework for Arctic climate interventions, beginning with a focus on factors associated with the atmosphere. The methodology should be completed for a full risk assessment (Zeitler and Brunell 2024) and can be adapted more specifically to individual approaches.

Governance

Version published: 
  • Can Indigenous rights and perspectives be incorporated in governance of ocean-based climate solutions when solutions are implemented in the name of global environmental protection (Chuffart et al. 2023)?
  • Chitty et al. (2025) lists key questions that need to be answered to advance just and equitable governance strategies for climate interventions in the Arctic.
