In the intro of a peer-reviewed (?) paper: "The frequency of extreme climate events, such as hurricanes, tsunamis, heat waves, and heavy precipitation, have also increased significantly[...]." TSUNAMIS??!! 🧐🤯

Reforestation and surface cooling in temperate zones: Mechanisms and implications bit.ly/35wmOQ5

Our new blog post summarizes two recent comment letters about Verra - Standards for a Sustainable Future’ proposed use of ton-year accounting to issue carbon offset credits — including for delays in CO₂ emissions that are as short as a single year. (1/11) carbonplan.org/blog/ton-year-…

Does anybody know why LU emissions in SSP3 decline after 2020 despite ongoing deforestation, cropland expansion and little/no mitigation? Maybe Detlef van Vuuren or Glen Peters?

Super excited about this summary in National Geographic online by Craig Welch about my paper in One Earth with Pedro Brancalion about which #tree growing programs to support

Our paper led by Fangyuan Hua is out in Science Magazine! Headline: native forest restoration results in better provision of most ecosystem services, but not timber production when compared to plantations. See🧵for detail 1/14 science.org/doi/epdf/10.11…

My News & Views on "Future reversal of warming-enhanced vegetation productivity in the Northern Hemisphere" by Yichen Zhang and colleagues - rdcu.be/cOCaI

Carbon removal should be defined as carbon permanently removed. I & Zeke Hausfather Karen Holl Cyril Brunner Alexander Koch Natalya Jarlebring argue for the need to separate solutions that restore carbon in the short carbon cycle from those that permanently store it away climatechangenews.com/2022/06/13/nat…

Avoid, enhance, aaaand then restore... 🌳

This is really important stuff. Admittedly I've made that mistake before, too. We need to consider the people who live on the "restorable" land.

This is a great new paper by Damon Matthews that use tonne-years but crush the traditional way of using it and say: 🚫 It should not be used for offsetting CO2 ↗️ Should last beyond peak temperature nature.com/articles/s4146…
