Carlson, C.; Trisos, C. (2018): Climate engineering needs a clean bill of health. In: Nature Climate change 8 (10), S. 843–845. DOI: 10.1038/s41558-018-0294-7.

"Climate change will almost certainly cause millions of deaths. Climate engineering might prevent this, but benefits — and risks — remain mostly unevaluated. Now is the time to bring planetary health research into climate engineering conversations."

Boysen, Lena R.; Lucht, Wolfgang; Gerten, Dieter (2017): Trade-offs for food production, nature conservation and climate limit the terrestrial carbon dioxide removal potential. In Glob Chang Biol. DOI: 10.1111/gcb.13745.

"We integrate these factors in one spatially explicit biogeochemical simulation framework to explore the tCDR opportunity space on land available after these constraints are taken into account, starting either in 2020 or 2050, and lasting until 2100. We find that assumed future needs for nature protection and food production strongly limit tCDR potentials. BPs on abandoned crop and pasture areas (~1300 Mha in scenarios of either 8.0 billion people and yield gap reductions of 25% until 2020 or 9.5 billion people and yield gap reductions of 50% until 2050) could, theoretically, sequester ~100 GtC in land carbon stocks and biomass harvest by 2100."
