The ICE-BRIDGE project focuses on developing a governance framework for geoengineering technologies in the Arctic, aiming to address biodiversity loss and promote climate justice. Given that polar ecosystems are at high risk due to climate change, ICE-BRIDGE emphasizes that the responsible and equitable management of technologies such as solar radiation management (SRM) is essential. The project underscores the need for a precautionary approach to prevent adverse impacts on Arctic species, Indigenous communities, and global biodiversity. Key objectives include assessing current governance frameworks for geoengineering, evaluating the environmental and climate justice implications, and analysing the impacts of biodiversity on Arctic ecosystems. ICE-BRIDGE integrates both scientific and Indigenous knowledge to protect local ecosystems while advancing global biodiversity conservation goals.
