How do we know whether policies are achieving their #decarbonisation aims?
The current framework is a complex web of standards, methodologies, and reporting requirements.

Tl:dr for the IPCC report: It's getting worse. It's going to get a lot worse yet. We're still making it worse. We need to throw absolutely everything at proven climate solutions. We need to build climate resilience into everything. We're still going to need carbon removals.

While UK is half way to net-zero, most recent progress has come from cutting coal power (-96% in a decade)
With hardly any coal left, future savings will have to come from tackling gas, oil and other GHGs
That means building heat, transport, farms etc…

Global sales of SUVs hit an all-time high in 2022 – driving their annual CO2 emissions to nearly 1 billion tonnes
Electric models are growing in popularity but not fast enough to offset rising emissions from the wider fleet

Extraordinary events in #Australia. A band of #climate insurgents, led by billionaire disruptor @mcannonbrookes, has taken over the board of @AGLEnergy. 185 years old and the country's largest CO2 emitter, they will now attempt to clean it up. #brave #clever #leadership #goodluck

This is great to read. Output-based carbon standards, instead of technology/process specific standards, are far more useful for spurring innovation and achieving Net Zero:

France is not fucking around
New legislation demands all *existing* carparks with 80 or more spaces must install a solar roof (in 3-5 years)
This could generate up to 11 gigawatts, which is the equivalent of 10 nuclear reactors
