Existential security: Safeguarding humanity or globalising power?
Nathan Sears' (2020) exploration of how a policy of ‘existential security’ might be fostered represents one of the first efforts to systematically think through security and how it might relate to thinking about existential risks. The concept of existential risk emerged in the early twenty-first century (see, e.g. Bostrom, 2002).

Does responsible climate leadership include research into solar geoengineering?
Very little is known about the effects of solar geoengineering interventions, and many researchers agree that research as well as deployment should be carefully governed.
The politics and governance of research into solar geoengineering
1 INTRODUCTION The politics of climate change has gained urgency in recent years, with climate emergencies declared, and net-zero targets announced by many countries, cities, and companies (Climate Emergency Declaration, 2020; Williams, 2019).
The politics and governance of research into solar geoengineering
Abstract Research into solar geoengineering, far from being societally neutral, is already highly intertwined with its emerging politics.
Clash of Geofutures and the Remaking of Planetary Order: Faultlines underlying Conflicts over Geoengineering Governance
Abstract Climate engineering (geoengineering) is rising up the global policy agenda, partly because international divisions pose deep challenges to collective climate mitigation. However, geoengineering is similarly subject to clashing interests, knowledge‐traditions and geopolitics.
Climate change: Joe Biden could ride a wave of international momentum to break deadlock in US
Joe Biden’s presidency is likely to be dominated by “the three Cs”: COVID-19, China and climate change. Each one of these behemoths could make or break him. Despite wildfires and hurricanes, this was not the long-awaited climate election. Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris campaigned on the promise of a two trillion dollar investment over the next four years.

Traditions and Trends in Global Environmental Politics: International Relations and the Earth (Paperback) - Routledge
How can a divided world share a single planet? As the environment rises ever higher on the global agenda, the discipline of International Relations (IR) is engaging in more varied and transformative ways than ever before to overcome environmental challenges. Focusing in particular on the key trends of the past 20 years,this volumeexplores the main developments in the global environmental crisis, with each chapter considering an environmental issue and an approach within IR.
The international politics of geoengineering: The feasibility of Plan B for tackling climate change:
Geoengineering technologies aim to make large-scale and deliberate interventions in the climate system possible. A typical framing is that researchers are exploring a ‘Plan B’ in case mitigation fails to avert dangerous climate change. Some options are thought to have the potential to alter the politics of climate change dramatically, yet in evaluating whether they might ultimately reduce climate risks, their political and security implications have so far not been given adequate prominence.
