NEW: You've heard the controversies around net-zero, but what about net-negative?

I explore the moral & scientific arguments for countries turning into net-hoovers of CO2, as Germany becomes 1st major econ to consider it

Explainer: Why some countries are aiming for ‘net-negative’ emissions | Daisy Dunne w/comment from Joeri Rogelj David Reiner

Read here: buff.ly/3TLhota

“Because of residual non-CO2 emissions, we will always reach net-zero CO2 emissions before we reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions.” Read Joeri Rogelj comments in Carbon Brief explaining net-negative emissions. Article by Daisy Dunne.

“There is a non-negligible chance that global warming will continue after net zero and intensify dangerous climate change ... Worldwide emissions reduction plans overlook this important risk,' Joeri Rogelj said ahead of #COP28 . insideclimatenews.org/news/17112023/…

I’m a Dutch science journalist, and I watched @climatethemovie.

It’s full of crap. 😂

Here’s my step-by-step walkthrough, translated by popular request! 👍

Enjoy the ride! 🧵

Did you see the new study everyone's been talking about this week, about how global support for climate action is very high – but systematically underestimated?

I interviewed the authors to find out more – and their answers were fascinating:

Dans un contexte de pressions sur la communication d'institutions scientifiques académiques : la liberté académique, l'indépendance des chercheurs et de la liberté d'expression sont un principe fondamental, reconnu par les lois de la République.

Last day today to apply for this post-doc opportunity!

Does a single hot year mean the 1.5C warming limit is breached?

Let's have a look at how the temperature limits of the #ParisAgreement are defined and understood in UN and national climate policy (1) 👇🌍🌡🇺🇳

Every year we're edging closer to 1.5C of global warming. 🌍🌡️🔥

What does that mean for the 1.5C limit?
And what does it mean for global climate action?

Today the European Commission has published the #2040ClimateTarget on possible pathways to make the EU climate neutral by 2050 - the detailed impact assessment is informed by the work of IIASA scientists Joeri Rogelj, Keywan Riahi and the members of the EU Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change 👇

What impact do non-CO2 emissions have on the world's remaining carbon budget to limit warming to 1.5c?

Failure to reduce global agricultural CH4 and N2O emissions over the next decades will put the achievement of the #ParisAgreement out of reach.

Listen to our researchers Joeri Rogelj & SSCP DTP PhD student Sofia Palazzo Corner speak on warming after net zero in this Frontiers in Science deep dive event

Sofia led a recent paper on the uncertainties of warming as emissions reduce to & beyond net zero 🔥

The EU’s Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change highlights the need for stronger efforts in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Switzerland avoids this by not being part of the EU, letting others reduce for us, and by not having an advisory board 😉

How heavy is the next IPCC report going to get?

Science says likely above 10kg!
