If CO2 emissions go to zero in 2050 (top), the sinks (green) will bring atmospheric CO2 back down (middle), & temperature will stabalise at ~1.7°C (bottom).

Going to zero today will keep us <1.5°C

Constant emissions leads to 2.6°C, rising rapidly thereafter.

A más pragmatismo climático, más necesidad de reducir CO2 por cambios socioeconómicos (o +3°C en 2100).

Conversación entre Pedro Linares y Xavier García Casals sobre el modelado de reducción de emisiones por cambios socioeconómicos.

GHG Emissions in the top six absolute emitters, & per person.

Russia has passed the US in terms of GHG emissions per person.

No peak in Chinese emissions, & not expected even if CO2 emissions peak.

Country figures exclude LULUCF.

Va del Reino Unido y la próxima victoria de Farage, pero también de Europa, Trump, EEUU y el mundo si piensas como yo que desde 2008 la gran demanda del electorado (insatisfecha) a izquierda, centro y derecha es cambiar un sistema que tiene pánico a renovarse.

While I agree with much of what Stephen Bush argues here, I think this claim is overly simplistic: "This shouldn’t need saying in 2025 but markets and globalisation are good."

I just finished reading Sven Beckert's history of the development of the global cotton industry. It's a bit repetitive in its main theses, and sometimes a bit of a slog, but well worth reading for those interested in the history of trade and industrial policy.

If every single ton of this 1,460 GtCO2 would be used to remove CO2 from the atmosphere, we could reverse 0.7°C of global warming.

And this estimate is a clear ceiling, because... /4

NEW STUDY: How much CO2 can we safely store in geological formations?

In a new @nature.com study, we cross-check established academic and industry estimates with various risk factors.

We find a prudent geological CO2 storage limit that is about 10x smaller. /1
