Earth just had its hottest three months on record - World Meteorological Organization & Copernicus ECMWF Limiting human-caused #GlobalWarming requires #NetZero CO2 emissions. Limiting warming to 1.5°C & 2°C involves rapid, deep & in most cases immediate #GHG emission reductions. ➡️bit.ly/WMOPRHt

Our latest publication shows that #N2O emissions from sheep excreta in #Kenya are 10-times lower than #IPCC defaults. Without local data, #GHG inventories might overestimate emissions from African #livestock. Claudia Arndt ILRI.org ESSA Project sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

🌎 ❌ We are crossing more and more planetary boundaries. Today, six boundaries are crossed. Two more are closing in on transgression. Decisive policy action can change this as we have shown with the recovery of the ozone layer. Read more: buff.ly/3Znyu2P

#IPCC's latest report 👉 bit.ly/SRYRpt23 shows that current policies are not on track to limit #globalwarming to 1.5°C. Tomorrow, the United Nations Secretary-General @AntonioGuterres convenes a Climate Ambition Summit at #UNGA to accelerate ambition, credibility & implementation.

This is extremely misleading! Methane from livestock isn't as bad as methane from FF BUT the livestock are still disrupting the natural carbon cycle (where the decomposing plant material would go back directly as CO2) and converting that CO2 to a short-lived but potent GHG.

The Earth right now is far warmer than the previously measured record for this time of year. Even with a growing El Niño, the pace and size of the uptick that we've seen this year is pretty shocking.

We are missing a big chunk of African #GHG emissions because there's no category for it! Read more in our latest paper on emissions from traditional #livestock enclosures or "bomas" in #Kenia. Link to paper: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S01…
