Horizon Europe project investigating the response of the Earth system to emission reduction & effectiveness of carbon dioxide removal #CO2 #CDR #carbonremoval

Earlier this month, RESCUE organised a policy roundtable in Brussels, which brought together researchers and policymakers to discuss climate modeling insights on carbon dioxide removal under overshoot and no-overshoot scenarios, and their relevance for climate policy. 👉Read more: buff.ly/QrVczBn

🌊The ocean already acts as a natural carbon sink, but could we enhance this ability to remove more CO₂ from the atmosphere? Our new Climate Classroom dives into Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement: how it works, its potential, and the scientific questions around safety and deployment. 🔗 buff.ly/KNMyjLc

🌊The ocean can absorb and store part of the CO₂ we emit, acting as a natural carbon sink. ❓Could we help the ocean absorb more CO₂? ❓How is it deployed, and what do scientists study to ensure it’s safe and effective? 👉 This Climate Classroom explores this approach. Take a look! buff.ly/kDXk8ak

What our multimodel analysis has shown: 🌴In tropical regions, planting trees tends to cool the climate; ❄️In high-latitude areas, new forests can darken snowy surfaces & cause local warming, despite their CO₂ removal potential Tree planting isn’t a simple, one-size-fits-all fix overall! (1/4)🧵👇

🌊 The ocean has the potential to absorb and store part of the excess carbon dioxide emitted. Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE) is a promising carbon dioxide removal approach currently explored. But how does it work and what are its challenges? 🔗 Read more in our Climate Classroom: buff.ly/BvDE8lb

❓ Can CDR reverse agroecological drought due to atmospheric CO2 emissions? A new RESCUE-funded study highlights that drought increases in hotspot regions cannot be symmetrically reversed by CDR, and the need for long-term drought adaptation planning. 👉 buff.ly/4WlaBYb (Image: Fig.4)
