"There are many ways to address the issue of climate change, and here at Salk we focus on making plants much more efficient at capturing and storing carbon. This is one of the strategies that will buy our planet more time as we cope with a burgeoning human population in the face of dramatic climate change. This biologically-based solution will reverse lost soil carbon and vitality, will strengthen plant survival, and will enhance crop yields in onerous, and rapidly changing growth zones. As “ideal plants” are developed, they will reduce atmospheric CO₂, and predictively restore collapsing ecosystems. This provides more time to implement quantitative, multi-pronged solutions to the world’s biggest threat to human existence, global climate change."

New Consortium for Science, Policy and Outcomes (CSPO) project funded by the Alfred P. Sloan Fundation.

"The project goals are twofold. First, by engaging with diverse groups of lay citizens, the project team aims to understand whether and how reasoned deliberation among citizens can usefully inform geoengineering research governance. Second, our team will study how this public input influences the way scientists, funders, and other stakeholders approach geoengineering research. The result will be a rich exploration of democratic governance of geoengineering research through public and stakeholder engagement."
