Delusionists have also accepted the comforting fallacy that—if global temperatures were to overshoot 1.5°C—they could be reduced back to desirable levels by carbon capture and storage (CCS). In fact, the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has concluded that overshoot is almost...
However, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) predicted that the construction industry is the most promising carbon reduction industry, with the potential to reduce carbon emissions by 6 billion tons annually by 2030 [15]. The Chinese government has recognized this and encouraged low...
2023), as well as to respond to geopolitical security concerns (Vezzoni 2023). This narrow vision for the bioeconomy has persisted across multiple successive EU bioeconomy documents, while the concerns related to justice, inequalities, and green (neo)coloniality have been reduced to economic justice...
Carbon neutrality refers to achieving net zero carbon dioxide emissions by balancing carbon dioxide emissions with removal. It is critical for achieving the global climate change targets. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)
Climate resilience refers to “the ability of a system and its component parts to anticipate, absorb, accommodate, or recover from the effects of a hazardous event in a timely and efficient manner,” (IPCC, 2012, p. 5), or the ability of individuals and communities to withstand, adapt to...

dioxide emissions based on the consumption of various fossil fuels such as raw coal, coke, crude oil, fuel oil, gasoline, kerosene, diesel, liquefied petroleum gas, and natural gas. According to the IPCC-provided method, the formula for calculating carbon emissions in each region is as follows...
Scottat00:16 AM on 26 July, 2023 Something is not adding up here. The diagram from theIPCCshows the area of wild fires increasing (for the Western US). Yet research published by the Royal Society shows the opposite (globally) and I give a link to the article: ...
Humanity needs to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 45% by 2030 to reach net zero emissions by 2050 to prevent the worst effects of climate change (IPCC2022). Despite a crushing sense of urgency to act, most countries are falling short of their climate targets. A recent analysis exa...
