New EU-funded report by IIASA, @newclimate.bsky.social & @nlenvironagency.bsky.social finds global emissions could peak before 2030 - but not fast enough to meet the 1.5°C Paris target. “The data show progress, but also a warning,” says IIASA’s Zuelclady Araujo Gutierrez. iiasa.ac.at/news/nov-202...
Emissions could peak before 2030 – yet the world is still off track for 1.5°C
A new EU-funded report reveals that while global emissions could peak before 2030, current efforts remain insufficient to meet the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C goal. The study, produced through collaborati...

Forest and other biomass techniques might be the most cost-effective methods of CO₂ removal (CDR), but they're certainly not the most effective. But if you're only interested in greenwashing, why waste your money on real CDR?

www.statista.com/chart/35418/...
This infographic titled "Forests Remain the Most Cost-Effective Way to Capture Carbon" compares the weighted average price per carbon credit for various carbon removal methods in 2023, measured in dollars per ton of CO₂ equivalent ($/tCO₂e). The methods listed and their respective prices are: Forest management: $12/tCO₂e (the most cost-effective method). Reforestation or afforestation: $16/tCO₂e. Biomass burial: $111/tCO₂e. Biochar: $131/tCO₂e. Direct air carbon capture and storage: $715/tCO₂e. Direct ocean carbon capture and storage: $1,402/tCO₂e (the most expensive method). The infographic also features a graph showing the historical and projected growth in global carbon capture capacity from 2011 to 2035. In 2011, the capacity was 19 Mt/year, which is expected to triple to 52 Mt/year by 2023, and increase significantly to 1,180 Mt/year by 2035. Sources for the data are listed as "The State of Carbon Dioxide Removal 2024 (IIASA)" and "IDTechEx."

New national climate plans have barely moved the needle on limiting global warming. Yet there is hope.

According to UNEP's latest #EmissionsGap Report, accelerated adoption of renewable energy and falling costs mean we have the tools to cut emissions now: www.unep.org/news-and-sto...
