The 2nd edition of the State of Carbon Dioxide Removal is out! Happy to have contributed to Chapter 7 (Current levels of CDR) and Chapter 9 (The CDR gap) along with a great team of other authors

Global Greenhouse Gas Reconciliation 2022 - What atmospheric measurements tell us about national GHG emissions ? An update of our previous study that was widely cited in the media is now available @ZhuDeng3 giacomo grassi GlobalCarbonProject ESA Climate Office essd.copernicus.org/preprints/essd…

🚨 Collapse of the land carbon sink in 2023 🚨 As the CO2 growth rate reached a record high at Mauna Loa, we set up a low-latency analysis of the carbon budget and found that plants and soils absorbed almost no CO2 last year GlobalCarbonProject Gianpaolo Balsamo arxiv.org/abs/2407.12447

New UNEP emissions gap report highlights a "massive gap between rhetoric and reality" and calls for a "quantum leap" in ambition to deliver Paris goals, as the world is way off-track today. I cover the details over at Carbon Brief: carbonbrief.org/unep-new-clima…

Another year, another climate gap. 🌍🔥🌡️ It's the 15th time I joined the lead author team of the UN Environment Programme #Emissionsgap report. How high are global emissions? What have countries pledged? And is this all aligned with the Paris Agreement? Let’s dig in with a 🧵/1

Incredible stat: A single container ship of solar panels can provide as much electricity as more than 50 large LNG tankers of gas – or 100 large coal ships There's many more insights in IEA Energy Technology Perspectives 2024 – here's a selection 🧵 1/7

Work with us! We are looking for researchers in 10 different fields, including environmental sciences, energy, ICT, data analysis, health, transport, social sciences, economics and more. All details: europa.eu/!Gcjwkp 🗓️ Apply by 10 December #EUCareers #EUScienceJobs

Is land use a source or a sink of CO2 globally? 📢The report of the IPCC Expert Meeting on “Reconciling Anthropogenic Land Use Emissions” is out ipcc-nggip.iges.or.jp/public/mtdocs/… 🔈It will be presented at an IPCC event during COP29, Sat. 16th Nov., 11am Baku time. apps.ipcc.ch/outreach/viewe…

A much-needed dialogue has started on how to address diverging estimates of man-made land use emissions. Two recent analyses offer complementary views: - IPCC Expert Meeting   ipcc-nggip.iges.or.jp/public/mtdocs/… - Allen et al. 2024 nature.com/articles/s4158…

2024: l'anno più caldo di sempre a Radio3 Scienza. Dopo l'ottima spiegazione di Elisa Palazzi, discuto cosa significhi “net-zero”, e perché stimare gli assorbimenti di CO2 da parte delle foreste è particolarmente complicato. raiplaysound.it/audio/2025/01/…

As many others, I will no longer actively use my X (ex-twitter) account. I can be found on Linked-in or on Bluesky Social.
