@giacgrassi.bsky.social e @caserinik.bsky.social fanno a polpette il rapporto dei 5 negaioli per il DOE. Sono stati più veloci del solito, ma gli argomenti di quei "mercanti di dubbi... sono già stati più volte confutati anche su Climalteranti."

🤔 However, land use remains a blind spot in tracking progress under the #ParisAgreement, mainly due to inconsistencies between global models and country-reported data.
💡 It is crucial that future #GlobalStocktakes include comparisons between modeled and country-provided net land-use emissions.

What is the contribution of land use to countries' climate pledges?
🖋️ A new paper led by Rosa Roman-Cuesta explores this question and offers a way forward.
🌲 The study finds that land use makes up a quarter of global 2030 mitigation pledges — mostly reliant on external support.

This is relevant for forest-rich nations, where “natural” sinks often play a major role in net-zero pledges.
Policymakers need to grasp these implications and adjust their climate ambition accordingly

We also urge the scientific community to generate these inventory-aligned estimates and scenarios, and to explore the implications.
Key takeaways: under inventory definitions, the remaining carbon budget is smaller—and reaching net-zero CO₂ alone is not enough to stop warming.

Drawing on prior studies and IPCC Expert Meetings, the IPCC has recently decided that its 7th Assessment Report will present land-use CO₂ estimates and scenarios that align with national inventory definitions.
Our Comment explains why this is a crucial step forward.

These differing definitions are like two languages: each valid in its own context, but hard to compare without proper translation.
Reconciling them is key for aligning global models, national inventories, and Earth observation — ultimately building trust in land-use emission estimates.

Climate science and national reporting use different definitions for anthropogenic land-use CO₂ fluxes.
This disconnect has led to a 7 billion-tonne annual gap in CO₂ estimates from land use—equivalent to 20% of global fossil CO₂ emissions—causing confusion among scientists and policymakers

Land carbon removals are key on the path to net-zero.
Yet, confusion exists on what “anthropogenic” land-use C fluxes are.

This is outrageous. Stupidity at work.
It’s a sign of ideological hostility to everything that involves a multilateral dialogue and cooperation.
If you ignore climate change, climate change will not ignore you.

Honored to have contributed to the IPCC AR7 scoping meeting last week

The @ipcc.bsky.social #AR7 scoping meeting successfully took place in Kuala Lumpur last week, with more than 230 experts from 70 countries drafting the outlines of the three Working Group contributions to #IPCC's seventh report assessing policy-relevant science on #climatechange.
Clear post.
Useful to remember that national GHG inventories use a definition of anthropogenic sinks which is different from climate models (and from this post).
This has important implications for net-zero goals and warming projections, e.g.

Is land use a source or a sink of CO2 globally? Well, it depends who you ask.
A dialogue has started to reconcile different estimates. Two recent analyses offer complementary views:
