Generation of electricity is the second largest source of carbon dioxide and other planet-warming gases in the United States.

Carbon dioxide removal has been described both as a mitigation necessity and as a risk to mitigation ambition or sustainability in the academic literature. This Comment examines the assumptions underl...

Systematically mapping peak warming across two main choices for climate policy – when carbon dioxide reaches net zero emissions and how fast methane emissions are cut – shows that near-term methane mi...

A curious online row over this summer's heatwaves points to a wider - and worrying - shift in climate science.

Systematically mapping peak warming across two main choices for climate policy – when carbon dioxide reaches net zero emissions and how fast methane emissions are cut – shows that near-term methane mi...

Recent surface warming and top-of-atmosphere energy imbalance point to higher future warming than previously estimated Previous constraints on transient climate response using observed surface te...

This study shows that aligning remaining carbon budgets with national greenhouse gas inventory accounting reduces the global 1.5 ∘C (50%) budget by  ~100 GtCO2, with possible depletion around 202...

As the world nears 1.5°C of global warming, near-term emissions reductions and adequate adaptation become ever more important to ensure a safe and livable planet for present and future generations

By relying on natural carbon sinks such as forests and peatlands to offset emissions, governments can appear closer to goals than they actually are

A new paper provides a reasonable forcing estimate but errs on the global temperature response
