DESCRIPTION:<p><strong>Lecture Title:</strong> Why study solar radiation management? A case study in the cost of acquiring new evidence</p>\n<p><strong>Speaker</strong>: Eric Winsberg</p>\n<p><strong>Date</strong>: 12th September 2020 (Sat)</p>\n<p><strong>Time</strong>: 6PM (IST) || 2.30PM (SAST) || 5.30AM (PDT) || 1.30PM (BST) || 8.30PM (HKT)</p>\n<p><strong>Zoom Link:</strong> https://iiit-ac-in.zoom.us/j/93997563252</p>\n<p><strong>Abstract</strong>: Recently\, research into the possibilities of developing Solar Radiation Management (SRM) and other geoengineering technologies has gained new momentum. Just this year\, Cambridge University announced the opening of a &ldquo\;Centre for Climate Repair&rdquo\; as part of the university&rsquo\;s Carbon Neutral Futures Initiative. A recent paper published in Nature gives hope that SRM could confer more benefits than previously thought. But opposition to even conducting research into SRM remains strong. I use the case study of SRM to develop a framework for thinking about the benefits and costs of acquiring new evidence and for thinking about the conditions under which new evidence could be harmful.</p>\n<p>You can also <strong>sign up for our mailing list</strong> to receive announcements about upcoming lectures: https://forms.gle/zW2PSCSG5uo97KVw9</p>\n<p><strong>Visit PhilSci India at</strong>: https://philsciindia.wixsite.com/lecture-series</p>\n
