Yale Center for Natural Carbon Capture
@yalecncc.bsky.social
Scientific research center at Yale University advancing science relating to how natural systems can be enhanced and scaled to reduce greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere and deliver meaningful social and ecological co-benefits.
Looking ahead to COP30, there is cautious hope: the Xingu experience shows that solutions already exist on the ground, but global and national frameworks must evolve to recognize, resource, and scale these Indigenous-led strategies." environment.yale.edu/news/article...
A Critical Knowledge Exchange Deep in the Amazon
COP30, which opens next week in Belém, Brazil, is expected to have an unprecedented focus on the essential role of Indigenous peoples in driving sustainable global climate response. Associate Professor Paulo Brando, an internationally recognized expert on tropical forest ecology, recently spoke to YSE News about the urgent need to connect ancestral knowledge with scientific methods to monitor and protect the health of threatened Amazon ecosystems.

Such project-scale empirical data are additionally required to demonstrate and advance the viability of process-based models and digital measurement, reporting and verification as tools to scale soil carbon accounting." www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Upstream data need to prove soil carbon as a climate solution - Nature Climate Change
Causal approaches employed at the scale of commercial agriculture are required to build high-quality evidence that climate-smart agricultural interventions result in real emissions reductions and removals. Such project-scale empirical data are additionally required to demonstrate and advance the viability of process-based models and digital measurement, reporting and verification as tools to scale soil carbon accounting.
