Guest : Victor Galaz, Stockholm Resilience Centre February 13 2011

How could human intervention in the environment on a potentially planetary proportion be governed? This is the inconvenient question that looms large over the geo-engineering debate. Last week on Think Globally Radio we discussed the scientific issues surrounding geo-engineering with Prof. Kevin Noone. This week, Dr. Victor Galaz of the Stockholm Resilience Centre takes the global governance perspective on geo-engineering, exploring the ethical dilemmas as well outlining the potential framework of international institutions that would be necessary in case mankind runs out of options for containing runaway climate change.
