Negative emissions—Part 1: Research landscape and synthesis

2018
Scholarly Work
Jan C Minx, William F Lamb, Max W Callaghan, Sabine Fuss, Jérôme Hilaire, Felix Creutzig, Thorben Amann, Tim Beringer, Wagner de Oliveira Garcia, Jens Hartmann, Tarun Khanna, Dominic Lenzi, Gunnar Luderer, Gregory F Nemet, Joeri Rogelj, Pete Smith, Jose Luis Vicente Vicente, Jennifer Wilcox, Maria del Mar Zamora Dominguez
This paper, part 1 of a 3 part series on NETs, clarifies the role of NETs in climate change mitigation scenarios, their ethical implications, as well as the challenges involved in bringing the various NETs to the market and scaling them up in time.

Negative emissions—Part 2: Costs, potentials and side effects

2018
Scholarly Work
Sabine Fuss, William F Lamb, Max W Callaghan, Jérôme Hilaire, Felix Creutzig, Thorben Amann, Tim Beringer, Wagner de Oliveira Garcia, Jens Hartmann, Tarun Khanna, Gunnar Luderer, Gregory F Nemet, Joeri Rogelj, Pete Smith, José Luis Vicente Vicente, Jennifer Wilcox, Maria del Mar Zamora Dominguez, Jan C Minx
This paper, part 2 of a 3 part series on negative emissions, presents estimates of costs, potentials, and side-effects for negative emission technologies.

Negative emissions—Part 3: Innovation and upscaling

2018
Scholarly Work
Gregory F Nemet, Max W Callaghan, Felix Creutzig, Sabine Fuss, Jens Hartmann, Jérôme Hilaire, William F Lamb, Jan C Minx, Sophia Rogers, Pete Smith
This paper finds that if NETs are to be deployed at the levels required to meet 1.5 °C and 2 °C targets, then important post-R&D issues will need to be addressed, including incentives for early deployment, niche markets, scale-up, and demand.

Evaluating the use of biomass energy with carbon capture and storage in low emission scenarios

2018
Scholarly Work
Naomi E Vaughan, Clair Gough, Sarah Mander, Emma W Littleton, Andrew Welfle, David E H J Gernaat, Detlef P van Vuuren
This paper looks into the detailed assumptions and results of a single Integrated Assessment Model (IAM), the IMAGE model framework, to learn more about the required implementation strategy of the default mitigation response using BECCS.

Climate engineering and human rights

2018
Scholarly Work
Toby Svoboda, Holly Jean Buck, Pablo Suarez
In this Forum, three scholars discuss how climate engineering will pose novel human rights challenges, and may well force reconsideration of how human rights are applied as a guide to action.

Comment on Geoengineering with seagrasses: is credit due where credit is given?

2018
Scholarly Work
Matthew P J Oreska, Karen J McGlathery, Igino M Emmer, Brian A Needelman, Stephen Emmett-Mattox, Stephen Crooks, J Patrick Megonigal, Doug Myers
This is a commentary on the article ‘Geoengineering with seagrasses: is credit due where credit is given?' that speaks to a concern in the article about a carbon crediting methodology over-allocating carbon credits for seagrass.
