The oil company of the Cop28 president would take hundreds of years to remove its own emissions using carbon capture technology.

Carbon capture is being promoted as a solution to the climate crisis, but analysis shows it would take the company 343 years to capture all its CO2 emissions for the next six years.

Activists are concerned that the Cop28 president will focus on technical solutions instead of reducing fossil fuel production and emissions. [ more ]

Oil companies are being sued for climate-related damages.

Exxon Mobil plans to become a leading lithium producer. [ more ]

Restoring global forests where they occur naturally could capture a third of the carbon humans have released since the Industrial Era.

Allowing existing forests to recover to maturity could provide extra carbon storage, but there are caveats like timber and palm oil needs, carbon loss from climate change, and cutting greenhouse gas emissions is necessary.

Forests are essential for addressing climate and biodiversity crises, but the reliance on trees to solve the climate crisis is a subject of debate. [ more ]
