New paper at @GEC_Journal. Can climate engineering research slowball to deployment? My take: Maybe…we should beware the Slippery Slopes!

Just noticed an article I wrote with for the conversation with @ANU_ICEDS and @aawktang was translated into Portuguese a few months ago... Kind of cool... https://t.co/esnTiIJLRJ.

"Researchers do not passively create a bank of knowledge for the world to draw from. They shape ideas and the way that issues are discussed.” @aawktang for @BulletinAtomic

New article @BulletinAtomic

Researching global sunlight reflection to cool the Earth may be necessary, but research itself can create risks.

Thanks to my amazing editor @Saragoud!

Meanwhile, countries like the US treat science, innovation, and industry as central to grand strategy: https://t.co/0887z4Ev01

If Australia doesn’t invest in research and innovation, Australia risks being left behind.

[Australian Academy of Science @Science_Academy]

The Government’s Science, Research and Innovation Budget tables reveal that Gov't investment in R&D is at the lowest on record at 0.49% (as a percentage of GDP).

In February, Australia’s leading scientists urged the government to commit to a ‘bold & ambitious’ structural reform agenda for science, including formally adopting a target of 3% of GDP invested in R&D.

To learn more, please read our pre-budget submission: https://t.co/Lg2psC4fzR

Note: The tables do not account for new and off-budget expenditures such as the National Reconstruction Fund, or initiatives such as the Australian Economic Accelerator program.
