Syukuro Manabe – awarded the 2021 #NobelPrize in Physics – demonstrated how increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere lead to increased temperatures at the surface of the Earth. His work laid the foundation for the development of current climate models.
Join us this Thursday at 12:00 for a lunchtime webinar with @ESEImperial’s Denis Fraga (@dfraga) on the role of batch-wise CO2 transport in decarbonising European industry. Register here 👇 https://t.co/DTPY02CoaN
As part of the project, @imperialcollege researchers have developed an innovative investment decision making framework and a tool that can be used to optimise a CCS transport and storage value chain.
"It is saddening that some 'lockdown sceptics' choose to distort the science to downplay the risks from #COVID19, and make ad hominem attacks on more visible scientists", writes @neil_ferguson for @thetimes https://t.co/feSpmCebRm
‘Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage in Industry & Transformation’ @IEA June 2020 report shows deployment of #CCUS - one of few techs avail. to significantly cut #CO2#emissions in many industries, esp. in the near-term, is woefully below SDS level ➡️https://t.co/kLdiVDEBz0
But that seemed impossible for the interviewers to process: each time they would come back with, "Yes, but how should we make the tradeoff between the economy and fighting the pandemic?" 2/
A couple of months ago, before the great reopening disaster, I did several interviews in which I was asked about the tradeoff between the economy and fighting the pandemic. I answered that there was no tradeoff; you can't recover until you beat the virus. 1/
There is no domestic terrorism designation in the USA.
President Trump probably doesn’t know this and doesn’t care. But for everyone else, important to understand that this is just a tweet.
There’s no law that could make this happen.
Professor Ferguson and the Imperial COVID-19 response team never estimated 40,000 or 100,000 Swedish deaths. Imperial's work is being conflated with that of an entirely separate group of researchers
THREAD: You may have seen false claims that Imperial COVID-19 "modelling envisaged Sweden paying a heavy price for its rejection of lockdown, with 40,000 Covid deaths by 1 May and almost 100,000 by June". Our researchers made no such prediction
