Heinrich Böll Stiftung (2020): A Societal Transformation Scenario for Staying Below 1.5°C. A study by Kai Kuhnhenn, Luis Costa, Eva Mahnke, Linda Schneider, Steffen Lange

Heinrich Böll Stiftung (2020): A Societal Transformation Scenario for Staying Below 1.5°C. A study by Kai Kuhnhenn, Luis Costa, Eva Mahnke, Linda Schneider, Steffen Lange. Edited by Heinrich Böll Foundation and Konzeptwerk Neue Ökonomie 2020 (Schriften zu Wirtschaft und Soziales, 23).

„Together with researchers from engineering and the natural and social sciences, Heinrich Böll Foundation and Konzeptwerk Neue Ökonomie developed a «Societal Transformation Scenario» for this publication – a global climate mitigation scenario that explores the climate effects of limiting global production and consumptions and of envisioning a broader societal transformation to accompany these transformations to reach a good life for all.“

IEAGHG Report (2020): CCS and the sustainable development goals (SDGs)

IEAGHG Report (2020): CCS and the sustainable development goals (SDGs).

„This study has mapped carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies against a select number of the 17 SDGs that have a direct interaction for both the power and industrial sectors. The overall objective of this assessment was to improve the availability and accessibility of information regarding the relevance of CCS in contributing to the achievement of the SDGs.“

Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences: Laboratory experiments on particles for solar geoengineering demonstrate limits of models

„Injecting light-reflecting aerosols into the stratosphere — known as solar geoengineering —could be used in conjunction with emissions reduction to lower the risks of a climate change and cool the planet. [nbsp]But deliberately introducing particles into the atmosphere may also carry significant risks, and those dangers may increase depending on what aerosols are used. Sulfate aerosols, for example, could contribute to ozone damage and stratospheric heating.“
