The Yearbook Ecology 2011 focuses on geo-engineering as an important alternative to the policy of reducing emissions and adapting to climate change. Two prominent technology variants are presented in detail, and the pros and cons of geo-engineering are carefully mapped and evaluated. Other chapters are devoted to related developments in law, business and civil society. The Ecologic Institute is one of the institutes supporting the yearbook and has contributed a chapter to the 2011 edition.

The chapter "Steps towards a renaissance of climate diplomacy in Europe." in the Yearbook Ecology 2011 was written by Sascha Müller-Kraenner, a founder and partner of the Ecologic Institute.
