The maps current global risks by integrating climate and conflict hazards with local vulnerabilities

(geoengineering to reduce global temperature)

"Stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) is one potential approach to cool the planet by injecting aerosols into the stratosphere to reflect a small fraction of incoming sunlight."

"Spencer Glendon explores the idea of a “climate adaptation culture” in which we address the future with confidence, awareness, and foresight. There is no single “solution” for climate change. We have to learn how to live with climate instability and develop numerous strategies to live as well as we can.

BBC The Climate Question: "Climate science and reporting are vital to understanding how our climate is changing and what we can do about it. But false information about climate change spread online is causing big problems. It’s no longer just about saying that climate change isn't happening; it’s increasingly about spreading uncertainty about its causes, its speed and the solutions. That’s making climate misinformation and disinformation harder to spot - and more divisive."

"How Calyx Global (Rating Carbon Credits) maintains independence in a space vulnerable to conflicts of interest, and how data and technology—from satellite sensing to AI—are transforming how carbon credits are verified and rated."
"The conversation also highlights key themes in the voluntary carbon market, including the tension between financial models and credibility, the challenges of measuring impact, and the broader implications for corporate climate action."

[Podcast]

The conversation explores the lifecycle of a carbon credit, the challenges of managing risks like additionality and leakage, and how voluntary carbon markets can incentivize global climate action.

The conversation explores the role of voluntary carbon markets in mobilizing finance for decarbonization, ensuring the integrity of carbon credits, and scaling high-quality projects. The panelists also discuss emerging standards, innovative financial products, and how companies can leverage VCMs to achieve net-zero goals while addressing climate risks.

Methane is the only greenhouse gas that will change the rate of warming in our lifetimes, according to MIT Professor Desirée Plata. So, why aren’t we talking about it more? Plata explains methane’s role in climate change and shares how she, perhaps counterintuitively, is accelerating the rate at which methane converts to carbon dioxide to help combat climate change.
