阿撒拉墨(Asilomar)气候干预技术国际大会
2010年3月26日
大会科学组织委员会声明
来自15个国家的175名专家参加了在加州Pacific Grove阿撒拉墨会议中心举行的为期五天的(2010年3月22日-26日)气候干预技术国际大会。这些专家来自不同领域(自然科学、工程学、社会科学、人文科学、法律),他们深入探讨了一系列议题,以确保对气候干预措施的风险、影响、功效的研究将会是负责的和透明的,并且确保将能够充分理解这些措施可能的后果。专家们认为,鉴于我们还不能充分了解这些措施及其对人类和生态系统的潜在显著影响,我们应该邀请政府和职能部门参与进一步的讨论。 认识到大气中温室气体浓度快速上升所造成的威胁, 目前气候干预的讨论应该持有低调的态度。
与会人员再次重申不管气候干预措施最终被证明安全和可行与否,鉴于气候变化可能带来的风险,我们都需要在减缓温室气体排放、适应不可避免的气候变化以及开发低碳能源上作出具体努力。
减少温室气体排放(缓解)至今进展缓慢,这一事实让我们深感忧虑。另外,气候系统对温室气体增加的响应的不确定性也使得未来可能存在很大的变化。因此,需要加强对所有相关领域的研究,对干预未来气候变化的额外措施是否可行、合适及伦理道德有更好的理解和交流。这些作为主要缓解战略的附加措施包括:气候干预措施(太阳辐射调节)和气候矫正措施(脱除二氧化碳)。
目前,采用这些气候干预和矫正措施相关的风险、预期效果和意外的影响、以及减少气候变化率的功效,最终评估这些措施能否被采用,这些方面我们都知之甚少。因此,我们需要进一步的研究。
鉴于政府机构都将对有关气候干预和矫正的研究、以及可能的实施负有最终的责任,本次大会在提倡有更广泛的公众参与的过程上迈出了第一步。这个过程能确保对该问题的研究以及时、安全、伦理道德、透明的方式进行,并最终能应对社会、人文以及环境的问题。
阿撒拉墨(Asilomar)气候干预技术国际大会是由“气候响应基金”与“Guttman计划”共同发起,由气候研究所科学组织委员会组织。详情请联系气候研究所(asilomar@climate.org)或者访问“气候响应基金”网站(www.climatereponsefund.org).
