  • Provincial-scale assessment of direct air capture to meet China’s climate neutrality goal under limited bioenergy supply

    Open AccessHanwoong Kim, Yang Qiu et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2024

    China has large, estimated potential for direct air carbon capture and storage (DACCS) but its deployment locations and impacts at the subnational scale remain unclear. This is largely because higher spatial resolution studies on carbon dioxide removal (CDR) in China have focused mainly on bioenergy with carbon capture and storage. This study uses a spatially detailed integrated energy-economy-climate model to evaluate DACCS for 31 provinces in C…

  • Diverse carbon dioxide removal approaches could reduce impacts on the energy–water–land system

  • Regional implications of carbon dioxide removal in meeting net zero targets for the United States

    Open AccessChloé Fauvel, Jay Fuhrman et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2023

    Net-zero greenhouse gas emission targets are central to current international efforts to stabilize global climate, and many of these plans rely on carbon dioxide removal (CDR) to meet mid-century goals. CDR can be performed via nature-based approaches, such as afforestation, or engineered approaches, such as direct air capture. Both will have large impacts in the regions where they are sited. We used the Global Change Analysis Model for the Unite…

  • The role of direct air capture and negative emissions technologies in the shared socioeconomic pathways towards +1.5 °C and +2 °C futures

    Open AccessJay Fuhrman, Andrés F Clarens et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2021

    The development of the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) and associated integrated assessment modeling (IAM) exercises did not include direct air capture with carbon storage (DACCS) in their scenarios. However, recent more optimistic cost estimates and commercial or pilot-scale DACCS plants have led to increased attention to this technology in both IAM literature and in real-world policy discussions. DACCS is an energy-consuming negative emiss…

  • If humans design the planet

    Benjamin A Converse, Patrick I Hancock et al.ARTICLEAmerican Psychologist2020References: 11

    As efforts to control climate change gain momentum, so too does the possibility that some global actor(s) will deploy one or more forms of climate engineering. Climate engineering refers to large-scale and deliberate activities intended to change either the carbon-balance or energy-balance of the planet. Climate engineering approaches are untested, involve deep uncertainty, and have far-reaching consequences. Nevertheless, many scientists expect …

  • Quantifying the total cost of infrastructure to enable environmentally preferable decisions

    Open AccessConrad A Gosse, Andrés F ClarensARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2013

    Efforts to reduce the environmental impacts of transportation infrastructure have generally overlooked many of the efficiencies that can be obtained by considering the relevant engineering and economic aspects as a system. Here, we present a framework for quantifying the burdens of ground transportation in urban settings that incorporates travel time, vehicle fuel and pavement maintenance costs. A Pareto set of bi-directional lane configurations …
