Carbon removal features in many G20 net-zero plans - yet commitments remain vague. Oliver Geden and others explain: without clear CDR targets and verification, credibility gaps widen. @stateofcdr.bsky.social 📘 State of CDR Insight Report (2025)

Ahead of #COP30, @stateofcdr.bsky.social released a new report, co-authored by CGS Associate Research Prof. @gidden.bsky.social, that assesses #G20 countries' progress in scaling carbon dioxide removal & whether it's enough to stay aligned with the #ParisAgreement: www.stateofcdr.org/insight-repo...

Curious about the data behind #TheStateofCDR Edition 2? We’ve made it easier than ever to explore the data yourself. Our open-access Data Portal lets you dive into #CDR data by country, method, and more. Built for researchers, policymakers, and the climate-curious - portal.stateofcdr.org

How are the world’s largest economies preparing to scale carbon removal and is it enough? Ahead of #COP30, we release our first Insight Report, that examines how G20 pledges address #CDR alongside emission cuts and what this means for long-term Paris alignment. Full report: tinyurl.com/3kn6seff

State of Carbon Dioxide Removal Insight report - is out now: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/633458017a1ae214f3772c76/t/690100cd9dca6f5dc9fa2ff3/1761673421154/State+of+CDR+Insight+Report+-+Carbon+Dioxide+Removal+in+The+G20+Pledges+-+Limited+and+Lacking+Credibility.pdf

The independent review, led by Dr Alan Whitehead CBE and commissioned by Department for Energy Security and Net Zero considered the economic, policy and regulatory dimensions of GGR deployment and developed five headline recommendations to to ensure prompt GGR deployment to meet Carbon Budgets 👇

Researchers from @smithschool.ox.ac.uk and the University of Pennsylvania have carried out the most comprehensive review of carbon offsetting yet - finding the practice largely ineffective and plagued by ‘intractable’ problems. Read more ⬇️ #OxfordClimate

Debate on whether 'Chinese technology is the key to a global green transition'. @smithschool.ox.ac.uk World Forum event. Really intrigued to hear what the arguments are and whether they can change our minds. Two:one for:against in an audience poll before the debate begins. #wfee

Inspiring first panel at @smithschool.ox.ac.uk World Forum on Enterprise & Environment. Lots of positive routes to using better facts, narratives, engagement methods, recognition of co-benefits and what really matters to people to win the argument on climate and the clean energy transition. #wfee

@rupertstuartsmith.bsky.social  highlights how this study may uniquely quantify the daily impact of climate change on heat-related mortality over the past 50 years. Numbers of heat-related deaths are still growing despite improved health medical facilities.

1,700 peopled died from heat-related deaths caused by climate change in Zürich ➡️ 1969-2018 according to #OxfordSmithSchool study. f.mtr.cool/gxdxhcqcdt @thomwetzer.bsky.social @rupertstuartsmith.bsky.social

It was a privilege to host a dialogue at the Africa Climate Summit last week with @fossiltreaty.bsky.social, where ONZ Fellow Dr Jessica Omukuti was one of the speakers. Check out the highlights below. @smithschool.ox.ac.uk @oxford-anthro.bsky.social

'Refining methods for attributing health impacts to climate change: a heat-mortality case study in Zürich' shows that climate change is not only increasing deaths during extreme heatwaves, but also on milder days when temperatures exceed local thresholds for human health.'

Tying source attribution to event effect attribution like @rupertstuartsmith.bsky.social's @smithschool.ox.ac.uk study of heat mortality in Zurich over 50 years is the Alpha and Omega of suing these bastards. news.wickedproblems.uk/p/exclusive-...

NEW: Climate change was responsible for 1,700 heat-related deaths in the Swiss canton of Zurich between 1969 and 2018, according to @smithschool.ox.ac.uk. 🇨🇭 These deaths represent nearly one-third of all heat-related mortality in the region during that period. #OxfordClimate

Study finds 1,700 climate change related deaths Zürich Deaths occurred during heatwaves but also in milder weather Adaptation to heat has saved at least 700 lives in the region, but deaths will keep increasing as temperatures rise @springernature.com link.springer.com/article/10.1...
