Just want to say I appreciate the deep dive and am going through it. My bias is that stabilization is worth funding and I already support Silverlining and now Reflective. I’d love to fund more of the space, but honestly it’s been hard to find organizations ready to accept public donations and to come to weightings between SRM research and Glacier Stabilization (say).
(There was a great day-long event at SF Climate Week recently, btw—https://stabilize.earth/ ; were you there?)
Thanks for reading, and would love your take as you think this through—drop me a line here or over linkedin/email. Seeing the crowd at SFCW was fascinating; really confirmed to me that this is an area that is set to move.
My sense (as you’d expect from the post) is that funding into the political/governance layer on top of the research development layer is a worthy additional path—so both forwarding the great science work that Silverlining and Reflective (or Arete, say, for glaciers) do, and also looking towards orgs moving government capacity forward to shape policy that research informs. Looking forward to your review!
