📢Global Carbon Budget 2025📢
Fossil CO2 emissions continue to rise in 2025 while the terrestrial carbon sink recovers to pre-El Niño strength.
The key findings are covered in two reports this year:
* ESSD: essd.copernicus.org/preprint…
* Nature: nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

I'm pleased to join the Scientific Advisory Council of France's @SocieteGenerale and look forward to advise on #climate, #ocean and #nature. It's my first time working with the private sector, following 3 IPCC cycles then 10yrs of govt advisory roles.

New faculty position in #Marine Sciences open in my School @uniofeastanglia
This is a great opportunity to deepen linkages between C cycle and ecosystem services/fish sciences, incl. understanding ecosystem shifts & #tippingpoints under #climatechange

The UK is well underway to decarbonise it's economy. Electric vehicles are a growing part of this progress, leading a less reliance on fossil fuel imports, less exposure to price volatility, and lower costs for drivers. Tackling #climatechange can be done

Science advances our economic, physical and social and cultural wellbeing, and is key to a sustainable future. However, we live in times of great change, and the values that have driven science for the benefit of humanity are under threat. Read our statement here: royalsociety.org/news/2025/0…
The UK’s Climate Change Committee @theccc advice on the 7th Carbon Budget is out. #Electrification provides 60% of emissions reductions by 2040. New woodland creation also play a role.
Tackling #climatechange reduces exposure to fossil fuel price shocks

The COP29 successfully negotiated key agreements on finance and carbon markets but has left a huge amount of work on both mitigation and adaptation action ahead of COP30. Our latest briefing is out now. theccc.org.uk/publication/co…

📢Global Carbon Budget 2024📢
Despite some predicting a peak in global fossil CO2 emissions, we estimate growth of 0.8% [-0.3% to 1.9%] in 2024. Maybe a peak next year?
Is it all bad news, or can we find some good news?

We just published another major update of the Global Carbon Budget. Same result. Global peak emissions is not yet here, despite some (major) progress in renewables, electric cars and deforestation.

I'm pleased to see the UK government has adopted our @theccc advice to aim to cut UK emissions by 81% by 2035, providing clarity to businesses and households. UK emissions have already been cut in half thanks to steady progress in clean technology #COP29

Vacancy - Prof. of Coastal System Dynamics in Climate Change
ALT https://vacancies.uea.ac.uk/vacancies/642/sir-anthony-habgood-professor-of-coastal-system-dynamics-in-climate-change-atr1678.html),
Our @theCCCuk Progress Report is out today. It sets out 10 priority recommendations to expand #climate action across the economy, including ramping up tree planting. It shows low-carbon technologies (EVs/heat pumps) must become the norm.

Our annual Progress Report is out today. The country’s 2030 target is at risk. It’s not too late to get back on track but now the Government needs to take urgent action in the next year.
Let’s take a closer look at the analysis ->🧵
