📚 New publication in Nature on consensus in mitigation scenarios! With the many discussions on the role of fossils during the climate conference #COP28, you may wonder what the science of climate change mitigation can tell us. Below, a thread. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

The findings above can be used for formulating research agendas. It is crucial for any user of mitigation scenarios - both academic and public - to be aware of these varying degrees of robustness in current mitigation literature.

Thanks @YangOu363 for your thoughts on decoding energy model variations in @NatureEnergyJnl (doi.org/10.1038/s41560-023-0…), discussing our recent paper on energy model fingerprints. Your suggestion to extend the diagnostics to also include water and land is a good next step.

.@MarkMDekker and colleagues present a typology for energy models to map model differences, which may help in understanding their potential for studying mitigation strategies. @vassican, @DetlefvanVuuren, @RobertPietzcker, @ECEMF_2020 go.nature.com/3MBogH2

The IMAGE fingerprint: - Moderately high responsivness - High carbon intensity reduction - Low Non-CO2 reduction - High dependence on Carbon Capture

⚠️🌎New report out! 🌍 In Mitigating Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Hard-to-abate Sectors, we developed scenarios to explore deep emission reductions in the sectors where mitigation is most difficult. pbl.nl/en/news/2022/achievin… @nlenvironagency @UUCopernicus

We came to Glasgow following a path to Disaster (2.7°C). We leave Glasgow on a path to Danger (just below 2°C). Road from Glasgow is more action, more ambition, on finance, equity, 50% targets for 2030 & net-zero by 2050, and nature climate solutions. theguardian.com/environment/…

Tussen alle (begrijpelijk) negatieve berichten over #COP26 mag het onderstaande ook gezegd worden: er zijn stappen gezet. O.a. in het Paris Rulebook en een nieuwe referentie over kolen en FF. Hopelijk niet 'too little too late'. Op naar verdere stappen volgend jaar!
Glasgow Climate Pact: -Paris Rulebook complete -strengthen targets sooner -2030 ambition process -1st ref to coal & fossil fuel subsidies -Global Goal on Adaptation prog -x2 adaptation finance -Loss & Damage network operationalised -new💰goal process -10yr empowerment prog & more

Is #COP26 enough? No. Did anyone expect it to be enough? I sure didn't; this is a more ambitious effort to work together than anything we humans have ever, ever accomplished. But is it more than we had 2 weeks ago? YES. And there's a lot more to be done; so let's get on with it!

Straks om 14.15 uur belangrijke live presentatie van wat de nieuwste beloften van landen voor verschil maken qua temperatuurstijging. Collega @micheldenelzen coördineerde het nodige rekenwerk voor deze update van het @UNEP Emissions Gap Report. #COP26 youtube.com/watch?v=GXS_z7lZ…

Een medeonderzoek (Rene van Westen) en ik maken een wekelijkse podcast over klimaatwetenschap voor het brede publiek. De eerste drie staan online. Interesse? Klimaat van Vandaag kan je vinden in je favoriete podcastapp. Veel luisterplezier!

Excellent (brief) interview with @MichaelEMann to questions you might have on the relation between the ongoing extreme events and our climate models. bit.ly/2W6OoSv
