The decarbonization of industry and industrial systems is a pressing challenge given the
relative lack of low-carbon options available for “hard to decarbonize” sectors such as …

Earth's biodiversity and human societies face pollution, overconsumption of natural
resources, urbanization, demographic shifts, social and economic inequalities, and habitat …

The uptake of carbon dioxide (CO2) by terrestrial ecosystems is critical for moderating
climate change. To provide a ground-based long-term assessment of the contribution of …

Soil is the largest terrestrial reservoir of organic carbon and is central for climate change
mitigation and carbon-climate feedbacks. Chemical and physical associations of soil carbon …

Background Scientists have raised concerns about whether high-income countries, with
their high per-capita CO 2 emissions, can decarbonise fast enough to meet their obligations …

The concept of net-zero carbon emissions has emerged from physical climate science.
However, it is operationalized through social, political and economic systems. We identify …

Climate change mitigation scenarios that meet the Paris Agreement's objective of limiting
global warming usually assume an important role for carbon dioxide removal and negative …

This chapter assesses simulations of future global climate change, spanning time horizons
from the near term (2021–2040), mid-term (2041–2060), and long term (2081–2100) out to …

The European aviation sector must substantially reduce climate impacts to reach net-zero
goals. This reduction, however, must not be limited to flight CO2 emissions since such a …

Enhancing the terrestrial ecosystem carbon sink (referred to as terrestrial C sink) is an
important way to slow down the continuous increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) …
