=====Key Insights=====
The report explores the future of geoengineering governance, focusing on solar radiation management (SRM) as a potential response to climate change. It presents two scenarios for 2025 and beyond, analyzing the implications of SRM research, development, and deployment, and offers policy recommendations for effective global governance. The scenarios consider the outcomes of UNFCCC negotiations, research cooperation, industry investment, and the impact of natural disasters on the adoption of SRM. The report emphasizes the need for inclusive, transparent governance structures and the importance of linking SRM to broader climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies. \\
