Informal plenary ⁦@COP28_UAE⁩. #Majlis tomorrow at 15, then Presidency package on Monday. We expect to see a phase-out of fossil fuels, NDC ambition ahead of #COP30, robust adaptation and finance in support of #ClimateAction in the package.

BREAKING #COP28 new text on global stocktake

Now 5 options on fossil fuel phaseout:

1⃣phase out all fossil fuels in line w/ science
2⃣as above + 1.5C + Paris principles
3⃣"unabated" + peak + "predominantly" FF free 2050
4⃣unabated + net-zero
5⃣"no text"

Amid all the fuzz around the #COP28 President’s references to #Science, this interview with colleagues @Peters_Glen, @ElinLBoasson and myself is timely.

It’s that time of the year, where we get stark reminders of the global discrepancy between political rhetoric and real politics.

📢Global Carbon Budget 2023📢

Despite record growth in clean energy, global fossil CO2 emissions are expected to grow 1.1% [0-2.1%] in 2023.

Strong policies are needed to ensure fossil fuels decline as clean energy grows!

Wise words from @AdamPolitics on the science controversy at COP28. More research is needed on how different scenarios are produced and used by different actors for different purposes, and with what effects.

#COP28 #FossilFuels

How does phasing out *unabated* (i.e. without CCS) versus *abated* (i.e. with CCS) fossil fuels looks like in the latest @IPCC_CH AR6 assessment

First, starting with aggregare fossil fuels (with & without CCS) for mitigation scenarios aligned w PA goals

#COP28 draft texts latest

More texts have been dropping over past 24hrs but a third of negotiating tracks still haven't published drafts

* no text on adaptation global goal
* mitigation work prog still just list of bullets
* no new text on stocktake

In case you missed it, this is what happens to fossil fuels and clean energy in a typical 1.5°C scenario, this one from the @IEA Net Zero Emissions in 2050 scenario.

[Glen Peters @Peters_Glen]

Abated fossil fuels (left) and unabated (right).

Abated here means with CCS.

Unabated fossil fuels are not zero because:
1) Use in feedstocks (e.g. plastic)
2) Offset by Carbon Dioxide Removal

Note: IEA scenarios uses less fossil fuels than IPCC assessed scenarios.

Fossil fuel use in 1.5°C scenarios (with no or low overshoot) assessed by the IPCC:

2023, the year that all sorts of climate records were broken in crazy ways...

Whether this could have been foreseen or not, maybe, but still fair to say we are entering uncharted territory.

[EIUI @EIUI_Dal]

Pivotal in enabling society to understand #ClimateChange, the @IPCC_CH has put this subject on societal & political agendas. What is its future? @Climansen, @ElinLBoasson, & @Peters_Glen outline 4 scenarios re #PolicyRelevance & #SciencePolicy dimensions https://t.co/Qpynd6mcXs

[Glen Peters @Peters_Glen]

The Special Collection on the future of the IPCC in @ClimateActionSN is starting to take shape. The first four articles are now posted, with more coming soon!

We will soon have a new call for submissions!

Edited by @ElinLBoasson, @Climansen, & myself.

[Erlend A. T. Hermansen @Climansen]

@ShinAsayama Thanks for this good comparison, Shin! Please also note that our piece is the intro to a special collection, so you can expect a number of other pieces illuminating these issues from a number of angles. There will also be a 2nd call for papers.

[Shin Asayama @ShinAsayama]

It's great to see another paper reflecting on the future of @IPCC_CH being published. @Climansen @ElinLBoasson @Peters_Glen present 4 stylized reform agendas for the IPCC:
1⃣ Back to basics
2⃣ Tailored broadcasting
3⃣ Orchestrating broad knowledge generation
4⃣ Reflexive learning

[Felix Schenuit @FelixSchenuit]

Great new article by @Climansen, @Peters_Glen, and @ElinLBoasson on the future of the IPCC — incl. valuable reflections on the politics of policy-relevance.
