Abstract for Scopus Indexing:
Marine geoengineering (MGE) offers potential pathways to mitigate anthropogenic greenhouse gases through techniques such as carbon dioxide removal and solar radiation management. However, it also presents significant environmental risks and governance challenges. This article reviews the existing international governance framework on MGE, with specific reference to key instruments such as the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Seas, the London Convention and London Protocol, the Convention on Biological Diversity, and the climate change regime. The article concludes by examining the evolving landscape of MGE governance in West Africa, focusing on efforts to develop a robust governance framework for these emerging technologies.
