Preliminary Report on the Contribution of Aichi Biodiversity Targets to Land-Based Climate Mitigation

2015

Scholarly Work

Paul Leadley, Rob Alkemade, Almut Arneth, Cornelia Krug, Alexander Popp, Carlo Rondinini, Elke Stehfest, Detlef van Vuuren

This report focuses on the interactions between land‐use options for climate change mitigation efforts, including BECCS, and the impact on biodiversity.

Biomass with CO2 Capture and Storage (Bio-CCS): The Way Forward for Europe

2015

Think Tank Report

European Technology Platform for Zero Emission Fossil Fuel Power Plants, European Biofuels Technology Platform

This report provides some initial recommendations for how the EU could accelerate the development and deployment of Bio-CCS technologies in order to realize their significant carbon-negative potential.

Bridging the gap: improving the economic and policy framework for carbon capture and storage in the European Union

2015

Think Tank Report

Samuela Bassi, Rodney Boyd, Simon Buckle, Paul Fennell, Niall Mac Dowell, Zen Makuch, Iain Staffell

This policy brief identifies the key factors that currently hold back CCS investment in the European Union and explores ways that CCS can be made viable.

Energy Resilient Solutions for Japan – a BECCS Case Study

2014

Scholarly Work

Florian Kraxner, Sylvain Leduc, Sabine Fuss, Kentaro Aoki, Georg Kindermann, Yoshiki Yamagata

This study analyzes Japan's suitability and potential for the use of BECCS as a mitigation tool.

The Emergence of the Geoengineering Debate Within the IPCC

2014

Scholarly Work

Arthur Petersen

This article looks at IPCC Assessment Reports to review how the IPCC has addressed geoengineering up to the Fifth Assessment Report in 2014.

Investigating afforestation and bioenergy CCS as climate change mitigation strategies

2014

Scholarly Work

Florian Humpenöder, Alexander Popp, Jan Philip Dietrich, David Klein, Hermann Lotze-Campen, Markus Bonsch, Benjamin Leon Bodirsky, Isabelle Weindl, Miodrag Stevanovic, Christoph Müller

This paper examines how different levels of a global tax on GHG emissions incentivizes afforestation and BECCS, finding that afforestation is a cost-efficient strategy at relatively low carbon prices, while BECCS becomes competitive at higher prices.

Exploring Negative Territory Carbon Dioxide Removal and Climate Policy Initiatives

2013

Scholarly Work

James Meadowcroft

This article explores the place for carbon dioxide removal in long term climate policy and considers nearer term policy issues.

Governance and Equity in the Development and Deployment of Negative Emissions Technologies

2012

Scholarly Work

Duncan McLaren

This paper presents a summary of results of the global assessment of the negative emission technologies (NETs) undertaken by the author for Friends of the Earth in the UK, with a focus on identified environmental justice and governance issues.

Considerations of Justice in Assessment and Appraisal of Negative Emissions Technologies

2012

Scholarly Work

Duncan P. Mclaren

This paper identifies several justice implications arising from the potential moral hazard in the development of NETs, the distribution of geological storage for carbon dioxide, and the competition for biological productivity for negative emissions.

Impacts of Climate-Related Geoengineering on Biological Diversity

2012

Scientific Report

Secretariat of the Convention on Biological Diversity

This study compiles and synthesizes available scientific information on the possible impacts of a range of geoengineering techniques on biodiversity, including preliminary information on associated social, economic and cultural considerations.
