CO2 removal (CDR) is both essential and controversial because side-effects can undermine mitigation ambition and sustainable development.
As the European Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change @esabcc_eu we advise the EU on how to navigate CDR opportunities and risks. (1/2)

Long story story:
- start with IPCC AR5, WG1, WG3, SYR and get confused
- differences explained here: nature.com/articles/nclimate…
- then go to IPCC SR15 Ch2, and particularly figure 2.A.3 in the Annex
- method explained here: nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
- after that...
The 2024 @UNEP#Emissionsgap Report launched with a clear message:
No more hot air … please!
With a massive gap between rhetoric and reality countries draft new climate commitments. /1
Stories, religious conflict, penis-stealing witches, a misunderstood pigeon, and the rise of AI. An exhilarating evening of conversation with @harari_yuval
Opening Keynote #PECS3: @AnneKSalomon & Kii’iljuus Barbara Wilson transform technology-challenged presentation into an inspiring series of cliff-hangers acknowledging #Indigenousknowledge systems. Great way to start the conference!

Very excited to be attending my first @PECS_Project conference in Montreal this week! If you spot me and want to learn more about @OneEarth_CP or have a paper you think might be a good fit, flag me down for a chat. #PECS3
Where does the world stand on climate change?
🌍🌡️🔥
Every year over 50 scientists update the @IPCC_CH assessment with the latest data available.
Global warming caused by humans advances at 0.26°C per decade – the highest rate since records began!⚠️

We're hiring a #postdoc! 🌍💻🌡️🔥
Looking for modellers interested in integrating adaptation and mitigation knowledge, providing evidence about strategies that might work in a world changed by climate change.
deadline: 15 Feb 2024 👇
🚨🌍🤓New #postdoc opportunity
Are you interested in how societies can transition towards a resilient low-carbon future?
Interested in both adaptation and mitigation modelling?
This opportunity might be perfect for you!
@imperialcollege@IC_CEPimperial.ac.uk/jobs/descript…
Our final issue of the year features a discussion on temperature overshoot. As we careen through the remaining carbon budget compatible with 1.5°, what is needed for the world to pivot towards a net-negative GHG strategy?
Great discussions on the topic at #AGU23, and of course the issue is very timely given #COP28.
Read our editorial “Beyond the Record” cell.com/one-earth/fulltext/…
