First entry

This is my first entry.

OK, I admit it. The title is a little inflamatory as I am not a geoengineer, and therefore have nothing to be reluctant about. I am the project lead for a research effort into looking at geoengineering, specifically solar radiation management using volcanoes as natural analogues. This is going to require me to do a lot of thinking about both the science of the effort, but also the political/social/ethical and governance issues that pervade the problem.

I am writing a blog to document my journey as suggested by several people.
