These risks aren’t hypothetical: A leak from a carbon dioxide pipeline already caused serious health harms in Satartia, Mississippi, where 45 people were hospitalized following a pipeline rupture in early 2020. You might be familiar with carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas that contributes to climate change.

Burning fossil fuels, cutting down forests, raising livestock, making cement, and using synthetic fertilizers are among the actions that have increased the amount of heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere to the point that the planet’s basic functions are coming undone. These impacts are not linear — they accelerate with more warming.

They found that the past seven years were the world’s warmest by a clear margin, with 2016 and 2020 the warmest on record. The C3S director Carlo Buontempo said, “These events are a stark reminder of the need to change our ways, take decisive and effective steps toward a sustainable society and work towards reducing net carbon emissions”.

.” A growing body of scientific research shows that even if society were to halt emissions overnight, a certain amount of atmospheric warming—and accompanying environmental risks— would still occur. The report noted wealthy nations’ unkept promise to deliver $100 billion in annual climate aid by 2020.

When it comes to climate action, it can be difficult to understand what makes a strong climate plan that puts us on a pathway to zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions – and what new policies and tools are actually dangerous distractions from real solutions. Current global CCUS capacity is about 0.001% of annual greenhouse gas emissions.

It calls on “rich, polluting countries,” including historic polluters as well “more recent carbon contributors” like the Middle Eastern Gulf states, India, and China, to “drastically cut their carbon emissions to prevent runaway climate change” and avert “exponentially higher levels of climate impacts affecting more people more quickly.”.

“The use of SAF is expected to contribute around 65% of the reduction in emissions needed by aviation to reach net-zero in 2050,” says Albert Tjoeng, head of corporate communications for the IATA, which defines a SAF as a non-fossil fuel that has the potential to generate lower carbon emissions than conventional kerosene in its life cycle.
