The following seminars and seminar schedules at locations other than the DSRC or CSL may be of interest:

13 March 2025
Tuesday, 2:00 pm MT
CU UMC, Room 235
Sustainability Committee's Geoengineering Panel: Can Geoengineering Save Us?
Panel: Lisa Dilling, EDF, James Hurrell, CSU, Peter Lawrence, NCAR, Matt Long, [C]Worthy, Karen Rosenlof, NOAA, Simone Tilmes, NCAR
Abstract: What are the risks and potential benefits of purposefully shifting parts of our atmosphere, oceans, and lands to address our carbon-charged climate? A panel of experts share their thoughts on solar, carbon, and marine geoengineering.
6 February 2024
Tuesday, 3:00 pm MT
CIRES Auditorium (Room 338)
Panel Discussion: Demystifying the Geoengineering Debate
Panel: David Fahey, NOAA CSL, with panelists Waleed Abdalati, Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES) and Lisa Dilling, Environmental Defense Fund
Abstract: If society cannot eliminate greenhouse gas emissions fast enough to avoid the worst impacts of climate change, should we try to cool the planet through geoengineering? Should we develop geoengineering technology regardless? If we were to artificially cool the planet, when, where, and how should we do it, who should do it, and who gets to decide? These are some of the most controversial questions in climate science and policy. We are lucky in Boulder to have three of the world's experts on the science and policy questions related to geoengineering. Please join us for a panel discussion of these questions, moderated by the Center for Social and Environmental Futures (C-SEF) Director Matt Burgess. YouTube: C-SEF Seminar
