🔹 What is #climatechange?
🔹 What is climate change mitigation?
🔹 How do we reduce remissions?
📹 #IPCC WGIII's Senior Scientist @DrAlaaClimate answered these questions for us at #COP27.

For all the sturm and drang, opinions and POVs, this is numerically how fast CCS injections are growing in the world. Most of the volume is a few big projects @DrAlaaClimate @AndreasenJack imperialcollegelondon.github…

There are hard & soft paths to AI use. Something for those experimenting with AI agents to keep in mind.

I've been privileged over the years to write a sequence energy modelling methodology papers with (now Professor) Steve Pye of UCL, along with a rotating cast of amazing people. The latest dropped today in @NatureEnergyJnl ➡️ rdcu.be/e2tt6

This is fundamentally incorrect. To varying levels of commercialization we know how to do all industrial processes with electricity directly or indirectly with hydrogen. With a high level of certainty we can reduce all industry GHGs to near zero with electricity, H2 & CCUS.

Do climate conferences actually achieve anything? A lot of people have strong opinions, but we wanted measurements, so we look at how the stock market moves during yearly international meetings called COPs – explanation below, or read the paper here: iopscience.iop.org/article/1…

📢 Read a new #DIAMOND publication on the role of #AI in climate change scientific assessments!
🔝Our colleague @DrAlaaClimate explores how AI tools can help manage scientific literature and improve climate science communication - including the #IPCC reports.

New OA paper “Defining ‘abated’ fossil fuel & industrial process emissions" in Energy & Climate Change. We provide 4 criteria: 1) Max fugitive methane, 2) Min capture rate, 3) Storage Permanence, 4) CDR for the residual 🧵@DrAlaaClimate @ColumbiaUEnergy doi.org/10.1016/j.egycc.2025…

Our new paper updating key metrics in the IPCC is now out, and the news is grim:
⬆️ Human induced warming now at 1.36C
⬆️ Rate of warming now 0.27C / decade
⬆️ Sharp increase in Earth's energy imbalance
⬇️ Remaining 1.5C carbon budget only 130 GtCO2

Can deep learning 🤖️generate climate mitigation scenarios 🌍 like IAMs?
We show yes！Our DL-based generative model produces 30,000 IPCC-aligned synthetic scenarios in seconds — matching key energy and emissions patterns.

#NowReading - #IPCC TG Data has published a paper discussing the implementation of #FAIR data principles in the IPCC process and how this can better support IPCC in its seventh cycle.
