| Summary: | Phase I of the Frozen Arctic Conservation project was a literature review to identify and and document the range of interventions that have been proposed to reverse, stabilize, or delay climate change impacts in the northern and Arctic regions. A total of 61 interventions were identified in six categories: ice sheets and glaciers, sea ice and icebergs, atmosphere and radiation management, marine measures, land-based measures, and industry. The interventions were evaluated according to a set of 12 criteria: technological readiness level, scalability, timeliness for near future effects, potential to make a difference in Arctic and northern regions given enough time, potential to make a global difference given enough time, cost to benefit comparison, likelihood of environmental risks, effects on Indigenous/local communities, ease of reversibility, and likelihood of termination shock. the aim is to follow up this initial evaluation with in-depth analyses of the most promising schemes according to clear, ... |
