Opportunities and Trade-Offs Among BECCS and the Food, Water, Energy, Biodiversity, and Social Systems Nexus at Regional Scales
This paper presents an interdisciplinary research framework to examine the trade-offs as well as the opportunities among BECCS scenarios using the Upper Missouri River Basin (UMRB) as a case study.
‘Slippery slope’ or ‘uphill struggle’? Broadening out expert scenarios of climate engineering research and development
This article suggests that the governance challenges for climate engineering should be thought of as less of a slippery slope than an ‘uphill struggle’ and that there is a need for governance that incentivizes, rather than constrains, research.
CCS Policy Indicator (CCS-PI)
The Global CCS Institute’s 2018 Global Policy Indicator (CCS-PI) tracks the development of government policy to accelerate the deployment of carbon capture and storage (CCS) as an essential climate mitigation technology in over 100 countries.
Targeting Carbon Dioxide Removal in the European Union
This paper assesses how best to ‘target’ carbon dioxide removal (CDR) to motivate EU policymakers exploring which CDR target strategy may work best to start dealing with CDR on a meaningful scale.
The politics and governance of negative emissions technologies
This is the introductory editorial to the debut issue of Global Sustainability which compiled seven articles on the politics and governance of negative emission technologies.
Negative emissions—Part 3: Innovation and upscaling
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.
Carbon Dioxide Removal and Tradeable Put Options at Scale
This paper discusses the use of option contracts in carbon dioxide removal (CDR) markets and how they can encourage rapid investment in CDR technology and in operational capacity.
A Clean Planet for all: A European strategic long-term vision for a prosperous, modern, competitive and climate neutral economy
This policy document outlines a vision of the economic and societal transformations required in the European Union, including the role of carbon sinks and CCS, to achieve the transition to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
Reply to Macreadie et al Comment on ‘Geoengineering with seagrasses: is credit due where credit is given?’
This article is a response to the Macreadie (et al) challenge of the ‘Geoengineering with seagrasses: is credit due where credit is given?’ paper, in which a proposal for an international protocol to quantify carbon burial in seagrass is presented.
