註釋

Since the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, society has organized efforts to limit the magnitude of climate change around the concept of stabilization-- that is, accepting some climate change but holding it within acceptable bounds. This report offers an initial exploration of the concept of climate restoration--that is, approaches that seek to return atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases to preindustrial levels within one to two generations. This report examines climate restoration through the lens of risk management under conditions of deep uncertainty. This report uses a simple integrated assessment model to explore the technological, economic, and policy conditions under which it might be possible to achieve various climate restoration goals and the conditions under which society might be better off with (rather than without) a climate restoration goal. This report also explores near-term actions that might help manage the risks of climate restoration.
