The limitations of CCS and CDR and their grip on our future climate | Explained

At COP28, CCS & CDR techs discussed to abate carbon emissions. CCS captures CO₂ from sources like fossil fuel industry & CDR uses natural means & techs like direct air capture. AR6 relies on CDR to limit warming to 1.5°C. CCS & CDR create room to emit, but use of…

The disagreement between two climate scientists that will decide our future

Getting to net zero emissions by mid-century is conventionally understood as humanity’s best hope for keeping Earth’s surface temperature (already 1.2°C above its pre-industrial level) from increasing well beyond 1.5°C – potentially reaching a point at which it could cause widespread societal breakdown.

Carbon capture a 'dangerous excuse' for burning more fossil fuels

Week one of the Cop28 climate talks in Dubai heard much about the grand potential of carbon capture and storage technologies (CCS) as dozens of countries push for a broad pact to phase out fossil fuels. While top producers use carbon sequestering as an excuse to keep on burning coal,…

COP28 president is wrong – science clearly shows fossil fuels must go (and fast)

According to the president of COP28, the latest round of UN climate negotiations in the United Arab Emirates, there is “no science” indicating that phasing out fossil fuels is necessary to restrict global heating to 1.5°C.

At COP 28, a fair share of the global carbon budget is at stake | Explained

There is a linear relationship between global warming and CO2 emissions. The carbon budget is a global resource available to all countries to limit warming to below a certain temperature, and developed countries have appropriated a larger share of this budget. India must recognise 'fair share of carbon budget' as…

Carbon budget for 1.5°C will run out in six years at current emissions levels – new research

If humanity wants to have a 50-50 chance of limiting global warming to 1.5°C, we can only emit 250 another gigatonnes (billion metric tonnes) of CO₂. This effectively gives the world just six years to get to net zero, according to calculations in our new paper published in Nature Climate…
