Contractual issues for CCS are complex, poorly understood, and expanding rapidly. I gave this paper www.pure.ed.ac.uk/admin/files/... at www.oxfordenergy.org annual Carbon Management Day 2025 on 227 March. Great discussions and much more work to be done in the field. #CCS #CDR #carboncontracts

Authoritarian vandalism doesn’t begin to cover this.
The most iconic figure in the environmental sciences is the Keeling Curve, the CO₂ record from Mauna Loa, Hawaii.
@noaa.gov had a wonderful site where you could visualize and download these data, and now it's just gone. These data belong to us and we should not let this happen!

@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social. On Trump/Paris Agreement. BBC Radio 4 just (at 1813) said the US is the world largest CO2 emitter. It isnt. China is, has been for about 15 years, and is roughly twice the US. Got to get the basics right.

Scientists developed the first climate models in the late 1960s (for which the Nobel Prize in physics was recently awarded!).
How have these models held up against what happened in the real world after they were published? Surprisingly well, it turns out:

just blurted out in class "yes, you have to cite where you got your info. in a world in which lying loudly is the only thing that seems to get rewarded, citing your sources is an act of resistance" and folks, I really believe that.

Terrifically useful/grim figure.
More than 90% of fossil fuel emissions occurred since my parents were born.
Over 80% since I was born.
Over 30% since my children were born.
And well over 50% since the world agreed at the Rio Earth Summit to prevent dangerous climate change. And I thought: „At last!“

Non pipeline transport is up and running!
The first serious CO2 ship is complete. This is important for Europe, which has good offshore CO2 storage but limited options onshore. Norway is opening the first facility, to be supplied by ships like this. Note the sail in the photo.

We shouldn’t motivate climate action by saying it will prevent some apocalyptic version of the world because it’s an insult to the countless millions of people who live under those conditions today.

Hard to disagree with the general thrust @markgongloff.bsky.social . COP is broken, and has been since Copenhagen, at least. But courts and EU wont get us over the line.

Global climate negotiations are faltering, but that doesn’t mean the fight against a heating planet is a lost cause.
