This study is a nail in the coffin for all BECCS-advocates (looking at you, Denmark!): “Assuming that all four planetary boundaries are respected (…) the model study indicates a removal potential [from BECCS] of less than 200 million tonnes of CO2 in 2050.”
Atmospheric #CarbonRemoval through “Climate plantations” (bioenergy with carbon capture and storage #BECCS) is limited within #PlanetaryBoundaries, a PIK model study @CommsEarth shows. But a more plant-based diet worldwide could free up significant areas.

NEW: Global EV sales grew 18% year-on-year in Jan 2025
Was this due to the "devastating collapse" of 21% growth in Europe?
The "stalling" 12% growth in China?
Maybe the "plunging" 22% rise in US/Canada?
Or "faltering" 50% rest-of-world growth…?

Consider that if we stopped using crop-based biofuels for road transport and instead put them to work in planes, we could decarbonise 25% of aviation by tomorrow.

The graph below shows the lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions from Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) vehicles and EVs. The embodied carbon from battery manufacture is yellow in the graph.
You can see that it’s dwarfed by the emission savings from driving EVs compared to ICE vehicles.

Don Jr. and Trump’s former Balkan envoy, Ric Grenell, seem to have decided to back Kosovo’s opposition ahead of Sunday’s elections. While it’s no surprise given Grenell’s fixation on PM Albin Kurti, it’s still cause for concern.

How quickly we decarbonize depends a lot on how we allocate risk. In an article out today by the Danish national broadcaster, I argued that government policy should de-risk renewables, and explained how this can benefit both developers and consumers.

Everyone seems to be framing Trump's freeze on federal grants as a Constitutional fight over powers of the purse & whether presidents can disregard Congressional appropriations. It is that. But also at stake is the fundamental validity of government contracts! I see much less discussion on this... 🧵

Hvorfor blev CO2-afgiften på landbruget så lav? Pga svineindustrien, der sidder tungt på magten i Landbrug & Fødevarer. Ifølge nationalbanken betyder selv trepartens lave afgift at 10 % af bedrifterne er konkurstruet i 2035.

Also, two other things: 1) These temperature targets refer to long term averages, so one year over 1.5°C isn’t reaching that target. 2) 1.5°C is a policy target and not a geophysical target. Nothing magical happens at 1.5°C.
