This morning, we released important new analysis showing latest CO2 emissions & clean energy trends

Don't miss this thread from our Executive Director @fbirol running through some of the key findings ⬇️

[Jennifer Morgan @climatemorgan]

In 2023, industrialized nations saw a record 4.5% drop in emissions, reaching levels lower than 1973, despite a 1.7% GDP growth. 2023 marked the largest percentage decline in CO2 emissions without sacrificing economic growth. 1/3

Climate change: how bad could the future be if we do nothing?

I developed this table of impacts for my book 📕 ‘Climate Change: A Very Short Introduction’ based on the @IPCC_CH 2018, 2019, 2021 and 2022 reports

Beyond 1.5°C #ClimateChange impacts gets worse and worse

Humanity faces ‘collective suicide’ over #ClimateCrisis, warns UN chief

It finally happened, breaking 5 sigma, the same statistical threshold physicists used to prove the existence of the Higgs boson.

At 2,700,000 km² below the 1991-2020 mean, Antarctic sea ice extent was 5.14σ below the mean, roughly a 1-in-7,400,000 chance.

Liebe Parteien des Bundestags,
die Klimakrise ist nicht mehr nur Modellrechnung sondern bittere Realität:
- Höchsttemperaturen (49C)
- Starkregen/Sturm
- Dürre
- Waldbrände
- Eisschmelze

Höchste Zeit im Notfallmodus Emissionen reduzieren, zB mit ambitioniertem #Heizungsgesetz

[Jan Rosenow @janrosenow]

"Wir machen den Bürgerinnen und Bürgern mit der Hoffnung auf das Heizen mit Wasserstoff etwas vor. Der Effekt solcher Scheinargumente ist es, die Wärmewende zu verzögern."

Mein Appell in @focusonline zu mehr Realismus und weniger Wunschdenken.

A very cool animation of atmospheric CO₂ for the year 2021:
* Fossil fuels, orange
* Burning biomass, red
* Land ecosystems, green
* Ocean, blue

For a well-mixed GHG, it takes some time for CO₂ to distribute globally from the sources in the North!

"In the event that climate targets are exceeded", there is an assumption the world will go back to 1.5°C (overshoot) & not just stabalise at a higher level (e.g., 1.7°C).

Maybe there needs to be more research on mitigation & impacts without overshoot?

Der Markt entscheidet: Der Zug zur E-Mobilität ist auch bei Lkws und Bussen längst abgefahren, sagt MAN-Chef Alexander Vlaskamp. Mitte der 2030er-Jahre werde der Dieselbus verschwinden. Beim Lkw gehe es ebenfalls Schlag auf Schlag. Wasserstoff viel zu teuer. So ist es. 👇🏻

We must #RestoreNature to tackle the #climatecrisis

Nature restoration is crucial to our wellbeing, our economies, and to fulfill the commitments we all made at #COP15

Very important that the @EUCouncil has come to an agreement, paving the way to negotiations with @Europarl_EN

While we're at it, this is also true for all combustion of fossil fuels. Most of the energy burned becomes waste heat! I wish more people knew that when arguing this stuff. Imagine on a first principles basis arguing that the optimal state is one that wastes 2/3 of the output.

[Shanu Mathew @ShanuMathew93]

I wish everyone that spouted off on the ICE vs. EV debate had to simply acknowledge first that most of the energy you put into a gasoline car is wasted and EVs are far more efficient at converting energy to motion. This is a simple, objective fact.
