How Carbon Credits Can Help Close the Climate Funding Gap Governments around the world have committed to the goals of the Paris Agreement, but their climate pledges are insufficient. To keep a 1.5℃ world within reach, global emissions need to fall by as much as 45% by 2030. Bold and imme...
Leveraging such groundbreaking technologies as IoT big data can help us use natural resources more efficiently, reduce our carbon footprint, advance agricultural practices, and protect wildlife. Read on to learn how we can take advantage of sustainable AI and IoT big data in boosting our efforts t...
2045 Wind-down financing and insurance for legacy assets starts to get mothballed (e.g. financing of planes and ships built in 2022). 2050 Decarbonization is complete, and carbon topics cease to become part of balance sheet management, rather a threshold requirement at or...
It’s time for us and those we vote for to take an informed stand for our climate. Rob Jackson is the Chair of the Global Carbon Project, a Senior Fellow at Stanford’s Woods Institute for the Environment and Precourt Institute for Energy, and a professor of earth science at Stanford ...
We invested in pilot projects. We bought unverified credits. We overpaid, significantly in some cases, for carbon removal. Since most removal technologies haven’t scaled yet, the process is expensive and so is the purchase price.The only way to allow the industry to scale and bring down ...
The US, in particular, has focused on boosting carbon capture thanks to the Energy Department investing billions of dollars in the technology and attractive tax credits in the Inflation Reduction Act for project developers. A growing array of science also shows the world will need to capture ...
The concept of net-zero carbon emissions has emerged from physical climate science. However, it is operationalized through social, political and economic systems. We identify seven attributes of net zero, which are important to make it a successful framework for climate action. The seven attributes...
We contacted a former senior official with India´s central bank, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), to hear his view on the Adani Group´s debt mountain and possible knock-on effects for the public banking sector. His comments were guarded, saying: ...
2. How do we equitably share the proposed actions given the two basic facts that there is an enormous disparity in per capita emissions of different nations in the world and, as long as the world remains within a carbon-based energy economy, these emissions...
