Tiny fee on Minneapolis carbon pollution won't do much for the climate, warns expert

The case of Africa's 'vanishing' carbon deals

Blue Carbon's Africa venture highlights the complexity of delivering on carbon credits, plans that are often criticized for offering polluters a chance to 'greenwash' emissions.

Beyond Carbon: A Paradigm Shift for Climate Action

We must enforce, fund, and model policies that recognize the forest not merely as a carbon repository, but as the planet’s irreplaceable air conditioning and freshwater generation system.

"Why are the targets for reducing emissions not being met or now even agreed? The answer is money. Despite the harm, the world’s governments provided $956bn in direct fossil fuel subsidies in 2023."

"Our only chance to recover back to a stable & safe #climate is to accelerate the phase-out of #fossilfuels, remove #carbon & invest in #nature (on #land & in the #ocean), & do that without trading off between them." But it's not going to happen, thanks, e.g., to #Trump, #Putin, the #oilandgas companies & #OPEC, even though our hydrocarbon-fuelled industrial civilisation is doomed anyway, when the #oil & #gas run out!
The world lost the climate gamble. Now it faces a dangerous new reality

The world bet on collective but voluntary action to keep global warming at a safe level.
