Honored to have shared the podium yesterday at the Min. of Environment, Rome, with IPCC Chair Jim Skea.
Jim presented IPCC’s ongoing work assessing climate science, while I outlined emerging methodologies for reporting Carbon Dioxide Removal activities in national inventories.

A black and white, close-up portrait shows a man with short gray hair and dark eyes looking directly at the camera with a subtle, pleasant smile. He is wearing a light-colored blazer over a collared shirt and a dark necktie with a small, light-colored patterned design. The background is a blurred outdoor scene with leafy trees.
@giacgrassi.bsky.social is a Senior Scientific Officer at the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC). A leading expert on forests and climate, he specializes in LULUCF and greenhouse gas inventories. He is a prominent IPCC author and recipient of the 2020 Bologna Award for Sustainability.

📣 Postdoc Position: Land Carbon Fluxes & GHG Inventories
job-portal.lmu.de/jobposting/b...
🌍 Hosted by the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, includes a up to 2 years at the Joint Research Centre (Italy),
➡️ Unique opportunity to work at the science–policy interface.
#ClimateScience
🌍 Where to access the data
🔗 EU Forest Observatory: forest-observatory.ec.europa.eu/carbon/fluxes
🔗 Online repository: zenodo.org/records/1790...
Huge thanks to Joana Melo for leading this work!
🌳 The Hub centers on national GHG inventories and compares them with global datasets (e.g., Global Carbon Budget, Global Forest Watch), applying a “translation” approach to align definitions across communities.
It support efforts under the IPCC to increase confidence on land use emissions.

🌳 Puzzled by land-use emissions data?
➡️ The LULUCF Data Hub description paper now in discussion:
essd.copernicus.org/preprints/es...
🌍 The Hub is an open-access platform that compiles, harmonizes, and visualizes country-level CO₂ fluxes from land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF).

Chi è Lysenko, e cosa c’entra con Trump, l’IPCC e la democrazia?
Ne abbiamo scritto nel Il Sole 24 Ore con il filosofo della scienza Matteo Motterlini.
Uscire dall'IPCC non significa sottrarsi al riscaldamento globale, così come gettare il termometro non fa sparire la febbre.
All’inizio del nuovo anno, può essere utile chiedersi a che punto siamo nella crisi climatica.
È una sfida che ci chiede di scegliere insieme la rotta giusta, prima che la fisica decida per noi.
Ne abbiamo scritto ne Il Post con il filosofo Matteo Motterlini

Proud to be European ❤️❤️
4/ The captain doesn’t know the iceberg’s depth or how the hull would react. Similarly, temperature projections are uncertain. But uncertainty isn’t ignorance and shouldn’t excuse inaction. It should drive us to act on what we can control: the ship’s turning radius—our greenhouse gas emissions.
3/ The ship hasn’t completed its turn (orange: emissions still rising), but change has begun. Compared to ten years ago, the worst risks (red) are less likely. Recent pledges lower risk further (yellow), yet we remain in dangerous waters. To reach safer zones, the turn must accelerate (green).
2/ Imagine a transatlantic liner at full speed: that’s the global economy. Emissions set its course. Scientists spot a huge iceberg and raise the alarm. After long discussions, just like at climate conferences, the danger is acknowledged and the collective decision is made to steer the ship ...
With a mixed-results at COP30 - i.e. good intentions but no concrete plans for the “transition away from fossil fuels” - don’t give up.
Let’s remember the progress made since the Paris Agreement and the options ahead of us. That’s the message of the image below

Che la causa del cambiamento climatico siamo noi è in realtà una buona notizia.
Spiego il perché nella parte finale (min 17:30) di questa bella puntata di Presa Diretta.

@giacgrassi.bsky.social e @caserinik.bsky.social fanno a polpette il rapporto dei 5 negaioli per il DOE. Sono stati più veloci del solito, ma gli argomenti di quei "mercanti di dubbi... sono già stati più volte confutati anche su Climalteranti."
thanks to the great team of co-authors, including Michel den Elzen, Zuelclady M.F. Araujo Gutierrez, Will Lamb, Nicklas Forsell, Joana B. Melo, Simone Rossi, Malte Meinshausen, Sandro Federici, Matthew GIDDEN, Kimon Keramidas, Anu Korosuo
🤔 However, land use remains a blind spot in tracking progress under the #ParisAgreement, mainly due to inconsistencies between global models and country-reported data.
💡 It is crucial that future #GlobalStocktakes include comparisons between modeled and country-provided net land-use emissions.
2/
What is the contribution of land use to countries' climate pledges?
🖋️ A new paper led by Rosa Roman-Cuesta explores this question and offers a way forward.
🌲 The study finds that land use makes up a quarter of global 2030 mitigation pledges — mostly reliant on external support.
