对地球气候系统中有意的大规模干预的评估,统称为“地球工程”,在很大程度上采取了狭隘的框架和独家专家分析的形式,过早地“关闭”了特定的建议。在这里,我们展示了地球工程的第一次“上游”评估的结果,以有意地“开放”更广泛的框架、知识和未来途径。我们报告了一种创新的分析-审议参与式评估过程的公民链,称为审议地图。来自诺福克郡(英国)的一群社会人口统计学上具有代表性的精选公民参与了一项审议性的多标准评估,相对于应对气候变化的其他选择,地球工程建议与不同专家和利益相关者的对称评估同时进行。尽管试图描绘不同的观点,但在公民和专家的审议中,对选择绩效的看法出现了非常一致的看法,其中地球工程建议的表现优于缓解方案。
Appraisals of deliberate, large-scale interventions in the earth’s climate system, known collectively as ‘geoengineering’, have largely taken the form of narrowly framed and exclusive expert analyses that prematurely ‘close down’ upon particular proposals. Here, we present the findings from the first ‘upstream’ appraisal of geoengineering to deliberately ‘open up’ to a broader diversity of framings, knowledges and future pathways. We report on the citizen strand of an innovative analytic–deliberative participatory appraisal process called Deliberative Mapping. A select but diverse group of sociodemographically representative citizens from Norfolk (United Kingdom) were engaged in a deliberative multi-criteria appraisal of geoengineering proposals relative to other options for tackling climate change, in parallel to symmetrical appraisals by diverse experts and stakeholders. Despite seeking to map divergent perspectives, a remarkably consistent view of option performance emerged across both the citizens’ and the specialists’ deliberations, where geoengineering proposals were outperformed by mitigation alternatives.
