The hidden cost of textiles production
The textile industry plays a key role in the global economy, with global sales amounting to 878 billion USD. Yet, the global environmental footprint of this sector and the associated socio-economic impact are poorly understood. Here we conduct a cradle-to-gate life cycle assessment (LCA) to quantify the environmental footprint of nine different fibers and their externalities costs, i.e., the cost of environmental impacts. We find that the global …
One-tenth of the EU’s sustainable biomethane coupled with carbon capture and storage can enable net-zero ammonia production
Ammonia is a vital industrial chemical, but its production is greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensive. Prevailing mitigation options, such as electrification of heating, carbon capture and storage (CCS), and green hydrogen, face challenges related to limited mitigation potential, switch to new infrastructure, and likely high costs. Sustainable biomethane, derived from biomass that does not compete with food production for land and can leverage e…
Sustainable scale-up of negative emissions technologies and practices
Most climate change mitigation scenarios restricting global warming to 1.5 °C rely heavily on negative emissions technologies and practices (NETPs). Here we updated previous literature reviews and conducted an analysis to identify the most appealing NETPs. We evaluated 36 NETPs configurations considering their technical maturity, economic feasibility, greenhouse gas removal potential, resource use, and environmental impacts. We found multiple tra…
Sustainability footprints of a renewable carbon transition for the petrochemical sector within planetary boundaries
The petrochemical sector will play a crucial role in developing low-carbon transition technologies, but the industry also contributes a significant proportion of greenhouse gas emissions. Momentum is building to help reduce the carbon footprint of this hard-to-abate sector, particularly through replacing fossil carbon feed-stocks with carbon from biomass, captured CO2, and other recycled resources, but the broader implications of these so-called …
