NEW dataset for exploration and download:   The HATCH, Historical Adoption of TeCHnology, dataset   Massive effort by @jennagreen22 +others La Follette School of Public Affairs MCC Berlin IIASA to assemble 1000s of country-level time series on adoption of 200 diverse technologies. 1/

🌍Thrilled to share the publication of these figures I worked on in nature! Great study by Matthew Gidden et al. on how land emissions are counted towards #ParisAgreement goals. Unveiling the gaps between scientific models & national GHG inventories—this study is a game-changer! 🎯

Excellent Matthew Gidden Thomas Gasser & giacomo grassi on complexities of land-climate interaction & why these better not be mixed up with fossil/process emissions in #climate models or policy. Implies more focus on role of #forest #products for mitigation carbonbrief.org/guest-post-why…

After 20 wonderful years at EPA, I'm excited to announce that I am taking on a new challenge as Director of the Joint Global Change Research Institute! pnnl.gov/news-media/all…

Surprised to read this in the Nature editorial on CCS in the EU: "There is not a [..] system for governing and regulating the technology". The CCS Directive has been in place since 2009.. - it's carbon removal for which the EU has no proper governance (like all other countries).

The EU has agreed on the world's first #carbonremoval certification framework! 𝗦𝗰𝗼𝗽𝗲 There will be four types of units: • Permanent carbon removal • Temporary carbon storage in long-lasting products (at least 35 years) • Temporary carbon storage from carbon farming •

Conventional #carbonremoval on land will need to increase. And novel #CDR will need to increase A LOT. A reminder from the 2023 #StateofCDR report. I hear the next version will come out in mid-2024. Looking forward to it! For deciphering the visual: Conventional CDR on land is

OUT NOW! Our new study on the many benefitial effect of changing dietary choices towards less meat, less processed food and higher share of unsaturated fats. Result: Big synergies between private health and global climate benefits. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

New led by William Lamb: the “CDR GAP” NatureClimate Gap = CDR in Paris scenarios - CDR in national proposals Gap in 2050 is 0.5 to 5.5 GT CO2 per year Rapid emissions reductions necessary regardless of how much CDR Updates in statofcdr.org 2024 coming on June 4 1/5

At EIA, we’ve just released our National Energy Modeling System (NEMS) – used to produce the Annual Energy Outlook – as an open source product, with additional EIA code to follow. github.com/EIAgov/NEMS

The next edition of the #StateofCDR is out tomorrow! We have new #opendata and novel #scenario analysis exploring what levels of #CDR are needed to sustainably achieve the #ParisAgreement. Join us for the webinar 👉 eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-state-of…

The long-awaited and most comprehensive report on #CarbonRemoval is out! The State of #CDR - Edition 2. With 222 pages full of detailed analysis and overview, it is double the length compared to the first volume. It offers much-needed clarity on terminology, incl sinks,

On 9-11 July, the IPCC held a Meeting on 'Reconciling Land Use Emissions' at #JRC, with >100 participants from 48 countries, including many world's leading experts in carbon modelling, Earth Observation, and national inventories. Why land use emissions need to be reconciled? 1/7

New study by G and co-authors shows that for 1.5°C pathways, 90% of the mitigation between 2020 and 2030 will come from emissions reductions: 💨70% CO2 emission cuts 💭20% non-CO2 emission cuts 🌲10% land-based CO2 removals (e.g. afforestation) nature.com/articles/s4324…
