Informed and uninformed opinions on new measures to address climate change

Kniebes, Carola; Merk, Christine; Pönitzsch, Gert; … - 2014

Climate engineering (CE) and carbon capture and storage sub-seabed (CCS-S) are currently controversially debated …, namely, stratospheric sulphate injection (SSI) and afforestation, as well as CCS-S. Using data from a novel large … between the three measures. Afforestation is strongly favoured over CCS-S and SSI. This ranking holds independent of the …

Accounting aspects of ocean iron fertilization

Rickels, Wilfried; Rehdanz, Katrin; Oschlies, Andreas - 2009

Diminishing emission budgets and increasing risks of catastrophic damages from climate change require analyses of rapid response options including geoengineering options such as ocean iron fertilization (OIF). To decide whether or not OIF might be such an option an assessment of its potential as...

Knowledge about aerosol injection does not reduce individual mitigation efforts

Merk, Christine; Pönitzsch, Gert; Rehdanz, Katrin - 2015

Stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) is a climate engineering (CE) method that is reputed to be very effective in cooling the planet but is also thought to involve major risks and side effects. As a new option in the bid to counter climate change, it has attracted an increasing amount of...

Exploring public perception of environmental technology over time

Braun, Carola; Rehdanz, Katrin; Schmidt, Ulrich - 2016

Public opinion has a substantial impact on political actions. However, public opinion might be driven by temporary … emotions. If these emotions cool off over time, public opinion might change as well. This paper analyses how emotions drive … public opinion over time for the case of an environmental climate engineering technology, namely solar radiation management …

Ocean iron fertilization : why further research is needed

Güssow, Kerstin; Oschlies, Andreas; Proelß, Alexander; … - 2009

Despite large uncertainties in the fertilization efficiency, natural iron fertilization studies and some of the purposeful iron enrichment studies have demonstrated that Southern Ocean iron fertilization can lead to a significant export of carbon from the sea surface to the ocean interior. From...

Economic prospects of ocean iron fertilization in an international carbon market

Rickels, Wilfried; Rehdanz, Katrin; Oschlies, Andreas - 2009

To stay within the 2°C temperature increase target for climate change calls for ambitious emission reduction targets already for the 2012-2020 compliance period. Cost-efficiency is a crucial criterion for the enforcement of such ambitious targets, requiring analyses of all possible abatement...

Drivers of renewable technology adoption in the household sector

Jacksohn, Anke; Grösche, Peter; Rehdanz, Katrin; … - 2018

Using representative household survey panel data from Germany, we undertake a simultaneous assessment of the importance of factors that have individually been found significant for the adoption of renewable energy systems but have never been tested jointly. These are sociodemographic and housing...
