Solar Radiation Modification: A last resort, but for how much longer? The windows of opportunity for Mitigation and Carbon Dioxide Removal alone have closed for keeping 2ºC alive, Adaptation is unaffordable. How long do we have until the Geoengineering window closes?

In this new article I look at how attitudes in the field of Solar Radiation Modification are changing and examine its role in delaying passing the 2ºC upper Paris goal.

5m tonnes of CO2 emitted in just 14 days of US war on Iran, analysis finds Exclusive: War in the Middle East is draining the global carbon budget faster than 84 countries combined

Who’s #carbonbudget are these 5M tonnes of CO2 coming out of?

What is our carbon budget for war?
Let’s talk about it.

This conversation needs to be held in the context of making transitions to carbon negative societies, and some use of fuels will be in the mix. So, let’s do the numbers, preferably using only fuels now out of the ground, and plan accordingly. We’ll need more than existing product. #CarbonBudget

Klimaathoogleraar over uitspraak Bonaire: ‘Het Nederlandse klimaatbeleid is jarenlang niet goed onderbouwd’ Terwijl in de Tweede Kamer de laatste hand werd gelegd aan een regeerakkoord, deed de Haagse rechtbank woensdag een uitspraak die het klimaatbeleid van het nieuwe kabinet direct al op losse schroeven ...

Nederland moet meer naar #fairshare en #carbonbudget kijken en ook #luchtvaart en #scheepvaart moeten meetellen. ‘De rechter zegt eigenlijk dat het Nederlandse klimaatbeleid al jarenlang niet goed is onderbouwd.’ #Bonaire #Klimaatzaak

Michel @kerres.bsky.social in podcast over de geopolitieke strijd over het #Noordpool gebied, maar bemerk tot mijn verbijstering dat de aanstormende #klimaatcrisis volstrekt niet op de radar staat. Er wordt bijkans geglunderd over de enorme olie & gas velden.

Top 1% have blown their 2026 carbon budget. Do we need a wealth tax? Governments are being pressured to ban carbon-intensive luxury items and tax fossil fuel profits to meet climate targets.

Oxfam report shows world's richest 1% have already exhausted their annual carbon budget It is estimated that the emissions produced by the richest 1 per cent in a single year could contribute to approximately 1.3 million heat-related deaths by the end of the century.

Permafrost emissions are on track to overtake India’s human emissions Arctic Amplification, driving temperature increases up to 4x faster than the rest of the world, is melting Permafrost at alarming rates that will soon see it’s emissions eclipse even large countries.

Permafrost is melting with emissions of carbon dioxide and methane on a par with Japan’s human emissions. Soon they will overtake India’s.

3/5 At current emission rates, the region’s #carbonbudget will be exhausted by 2035, beyond even the 2°C threshold of the #ParisAgreement. But there is still a way forward. If Mediterranean countries work together & cut emissions by around 6% per year from 2030, staying within 2°C is still possible.

The 1.5°C #carbonbudget is nearly exhausted. Only 170 GtCO₂ remain - about four years at 2025 emissions levels. A temporary overshoot of 1.5°C is now extremely likely. Every year we wait makes the necessary descent even steeper.

Global fossil fuel CO2 emissions are projected to rise by 1.1% in 2025, reaching a record 38.1 billion tonnes. The remaining #CarbonBudget for limiting warming to 1.5 degrees C (170 billion tonnes of CO2) could be used up before 2030.

3/4 Our new study reveals: at current emission rates, the Mediterranean's remaining #carbonbudget will be exhausted by 2035. The consequences are already visible. But there's hope. If Mediterranean countries cut emissions by ~6% annually from 2030, the 2°C Paris Agreement limit remains achievable.
