EU’s underwhelming 2040 climate target shifts responsibility to future generations
EU’s underwhelming 2040 climate target shifts responsibility to future generations
Over 100 organisations and scientists demand separation of EU’s 2040 climate targets
the European Commission has received an open letter signed by 96 academics, businesses, civil society organisations and research institutions urging the EU to separate emissions reductions, land-based sequestration and permanent carbon removals in the EU’s post-2030 climate framework.
A logo and a name
Carbon Market Watch colleagues met on 11 December to brainstorm a name and a logo to accentuate our Milkywire Climate Transformation Fund supported carbon dioxide removals (CDR) campaign.
The bare necessities: Essential principles to design sensible carbon removal policies
This paper reviews a variety of regulatory approaches to carbon dioxide removals (including emissions trading systems, tax incentives and public direct subsidies) and voluntary approaches, and, building upon failures, promising concepts and lessons learned from the reviewed frameworks, sketches a blueprint for sensible CDR policy design.
Join CMW in demanding a firewall between emissions reductions, land sequestration and carbon removals
Carbon Market Watch calls on organisations, businesses and academics to join its open call for the EU to explicitly separate its targets and policies for emissions reductions, carbon sequestration in the land sector and permanent removals in its post-2030 climate framework.
Creating an alternative carbon removals policy architecture for the EU
The European Union is starting the long process towards establishing the bloc’s post-2030 climate policy framework and Carbon Market Watch wants to make sure that slashing emissions is the absolute priority.
How current carbon removals policy frameworks fail to benefit the climate
A recent report by Carbon Market Watch of 20 global, EU, national and sub-national climate policy frameworks shows that not one governs carbon removals in an environmentally sound way.
Poor framing: The role of negative emissions technologies in existing climate policy frameworks
In this report Carbon Market Watch analyse the role and implementation of carbon removals in climate policies across 20 jurisdictions spanning global, EU, national and sub-national levels.
