Geological Net Zero and the need for disaggregated accounting for carbon sinks

Author(s): Allen MR; Frame DJ; Friedlingstein P; Gillett NP; Grassi G; Gregory JM; Hare W; House J; Huntingford C; Jenkins S; Jones CD; Knutti R; Lowe JA; Matthews HD; Meinshausen M; Meinshausen N; Peters GP; Plattner GK; Raper S; Rogelj J; Stott P ...

Achieving net zero global emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), with declining emissions of other greenhouse gases, is widely expected to halt global warming. CO2 emissions will continue to drive warming until fully balanced by active anthropogenic CO2 removals. For practical reasons, however, many ...

Perceptions of carbon dioxide emission reductions and future warming among climate experts

Author(s): Wynes S; Davis SJ; Dickau M; Ly S; Maibach E; Rogelj J; Zickfeld K; Matthews HD;

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) employs emission scenarios to explore a range of future climate outcomes but refrains from assigning probabilities to individual scenarios. However, IPCC authors have their own views on the likelihood of different climate outcomes, which are valuable to understand because authors possess both expert ins ...

Accounting for the climate benefit of temporary carbon storage in nature

Author(s): Matthews HD; Zickfeld K; Koch A; Luers A;

Nature-based climate solutions can contribute to climate mitigation, but the vulnerability of land carbon to disturbances means that efforts to slow or reverse land carbon loss could result in only temporary storage. The challenge of accounting for temporary storage is a key barrier to the implementation of nature-based climate mitigation strategies. Here ...

Mothers of disabled infants had higher cortisol levels in a free-ranging group of Japanese macaques (Macaca fuscata)

Author(s): Turner SE; Fedigan LM; Joyce MM; Matthews HD; Moriarity RJ; Nobuhara H; Nobuhara T; Stewart BM; Shimizu K;

Glucocorticoids (GCs) are hormones released in response to stressors and can provide insight into an organism's physiological well-being. Experiencing chronic challenges to homeostasis is associated with significant deviations from baseline fecal GCs (fGCs) in many species, providing a noninv ...

Moderate support for the use of digital tracking to support climate-mitigation strategies

Author(s): Garard J; Wood SLR; Sabet-Kassouf N; Ventimiglia A; Matthews HD; Ubalijoro É; Chaudhari K; Ivanova M; Luers AL;

The use of digital tracking of individuals throughout the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic renewed societal debates on the efficacy and ethics of digital surveillance to mitigate collective crises. While digital emissions tracking is being used to support climate-mitigation strategies, to dat ...

Current global efforts are insufficient to limit warming to 1.5°C

Author(s): Matthews HD; Wynes S;

Human activities have caused global temperatures to increase by 1.25°C, and the current emissions trajectory suggests that we will exceed 1.5°C in less than 10 years. Though the growth rate of global carbon dioxide emissions has slowed and many countries have strengthened their emissions targets, current midcentury net zero goals are insufficient to limit ...
