Project 2.9

Methane is the second most important greenhouse gas contributing to human-induced climate change. A new technique could restore methane concentrations to pre-industrial levels.

In this webinar from 21 November 2017, Dr Pep Candadell discusses the key trends in the 2017 Global Carbon Budget and reflects on COP23 outcomes.
-
‘No room for complacency’ – that’s the big message from the latest Global Carbon Budget, which reports global greenhouse emissions from fossil fuels and industry are on track to grow by 2% in 2017, reaching a new record high of 37 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide.
-
Satellite data is increasingly supporting carbon cycle monitoring, but there are still some limitations on what the data can tell us.
-
Water is the most precious resource needed for plants to grow, and our research suggests that vegetation is becoming much better at using it in a world in which carbon dioxide levels continue to rise.
-
Global fossil fuel emissions have stalled over the past three years, but we need to accelerate deployment of existing technologies and develop new technologies and behaviours if we’re to keep global warming below 2℃.
-
The latest global methane budget reveals that methane concentrations are growing in the atmosphere faster than any time in the past 20 years.
-
This year’s Global Carbon Budget found that, for the third year in a row, global carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels and industry have barely grown, while the global economy has continued to grow strongly.
-
When we think of global warming we often think of the impacts of droughts and extreme weather, so research showing that the world has been getting greener over the past 30 years is perhaps not what you’d expect.

Research highlights the importance of including all three major greenhouse gases–not just carbon dioxide–in global and regional climate impact assessments, mitigation options and climate policy development.
