*Analysis: What the new IPCC report says about how to limit warming to
1.5C or 2C*/
/
April 2022
There are a range of ways to limit warming in line with global climate
goals, according to the latest report from the United Nations’
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)./
/
The third part of the IPCC’s 6th assessment report, known as Working
Group III (WG3), provides a detailed view of possible futures.
For example, it says that current policies put the world on track for a
central estimate of around or a bit below 3C warming by 2100, though
climate system uncertainties mean that warming of as low as 2.3C or
above 4C cannot be fully ruled out.
If countries meet their current nationally determined contributions
(NDCs) for 2030 under the Paris Agreement it would shave a few tenths of
a degree off future warming – but a large gap remains between 2030
commitments and the magnitude of emissions reductions needed to put the
world on track for below 2C or 1.5C warming by 2100.
Stabilising global average temperature will require reducing carbon
dioxide (CO2) emissions to net-zero. Scenarios limiting the world to
below 2C generally reach net-zero CO2 in the “early 2070s”, while those
limiting warming to 1.5C reach net-zero in the “early 2050s”. If the
world reaches net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions then global
temperatures will fall.
WG3 explores a wide range of energy system and emissions pathways to
limit warming to 1.5C or below 2C, including worlds with large amounts
of net-negative emissions and carbon dioxide removal (CDR), worlds where
fossil fuels are eliminated rapidly in favour of renewable energy, and
worlds where global energy demand is sharply reduced...

*The role of carbon dioxide removal*
The report affirms that reducing global CO2 emissions to zero will stop
global warming. However, for global temperatures to be reduced in the
future net negative CO2 emissions are needed – particularly once non-CO2
GHG emissions have been cut as much as possible.
This means that to reduce future temperatures, CO2 will have to be
actively removed from the atmosphere through human activity...

*New Report on Climate Mitigation: Assessment Report (AR6) by Working
Group (WG3) of the IPCC*
Apr 4, 2022
Paul Beckwith
In this video I chat about the New Report released today on Climate
Mitigation; namely the Assessment Report 6 (AR6) by Working Group 3
(WG3) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
To remind you, WG2 is about Adaptation and Resilience to Climate Change,
while WG1 is about the Physical Basis of Climate Change.
Combined, these three reports are about 10.5 thousand pages, which is
obviously an encyclopedic undertaking, and I endeavour to read them from
start to finish.
This video is a very cursory look at the latest WG3 report, since
although I do read quite fast, I have not been able to read the full
report yet :)

*Robert Downey Jr. is writing a book on climate change that his
publisher promises is “fun.”*
By Corinne Segal - April 5, 2022
The climate crisis? Iron Man is on it. In between takes of his Marvel
blockbusters, Robert Downey Jr., as it turns out, has cultivated an
interest in nutrition and its implications for a person’s climate
footprint. He’s partnering with Thomas M. Kostigen, a journalist and
creator of USA Today‘s “Climate Survivalist” column, to co-author the
upcoming Cool Food: Erasing Your Carbon Footprint One Bite at a Time,
according to a Deadline exclusive.
Blackstone Publishing president and CEO Josh Stanton, who acquired the
book, told Deadline it will provide “an approachable roadmap with
practical steps to reduce our carbon footprint—and, with brilliant and
witty Downey, Jr. and Kostigen at the helm, readers are sure to have a
lot of fun as they learn, too.”
Kostigen previously wrote several books on climate change, including
Hacking Planet Earth: Technologies That Can Counteract Climate Change
and Create a Better Future, a look at developing technologies aimed at
addressing global warming.

*April 7, 2009*
In a story entitled "New Data Show Rapid Arctic Ice Decline," the
Washington Post observes: "The new evidence -- including satellite data
showing that the average multiyear wintertime sea ice cover in the
Arctic in 2005 and 2006 was nine feet thick, a significant decline from
the 1980s -- contradicts data cited in widely circulated reports by
Washington Post columnist George F. Will that sea ice in the Arctic has
not significantly declined since 1979."
