What happens if we ‘burn all the #carbon’? 🛢️⛽️ Carbon reserves, #CarbonBudgets, & policy options for governments https://buff.ly/4ehH2iy #CarbonBubble
Most Oxford colleges have student organisations called JCRs. These have budgets around £60K a year and often a lot goes unused. I would like to change their constitution with a plan to become #net-zero by 2029. Does any one have any thought on #carboncredits and #carbonbudgets and about how best to implement this?

Labour must act to save the environment – here’s my three-point plan

Carbon budgets that add up, proper protection for Britain’s land and sea, and replacing GDP with a wellbeing index. What Guardian columnist George Monbiot wants for Labour’s manifesto

...der #Universität #Leeds:

"Wealthier countries like the #US, #UnitedKingdom, and #Germany are not only responsible for the largest share of current and historic #emissions, but they are also on track to #overshoot their existing #CarbonBudgets, or the amount that the world can emit before exceeding the current global target of 1.5 degrees C (about 2.7 degrees F) of warming..."

Study: US owes $80 trillion in climate reparations

Major polluting countries could be responsible for a collective $170 trillion for overshooting their fair share of carbon emissions.

What would happen in #GreaterManchester if the spatial plan 'Places for Everyone' were to be implemented?
Could GM stay within its carbon budget?
Could it make a fair contribution to the nationally legislated net zero target?
We ran the numbers, trying our best to be fair and rigorous.
It's not a pretty picture.

The article describes the weakening of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority's sustainability policies, we believe as a concession to developers.
We had no notice of the changes but with other community and campaigning groups were able to argue against them. We have to wait to see what the Inspectors will conclude but aren't optimistic.
