🚨NEW PAPER🚨

"A comprehensive #bioenergy accounting model with a multi-dimensional analysis was
developed in a new study based in #China by combining spatial, life-cycle, and multi-path analyses."

Summary in a 🧵 below ⬇️
1/6 Image
Accordingly, "the #bioenergy production potential and #GHG emission reduction for each distinct type of #biomass feedstock through different conversion pathways were estimated in the study."
2/6 Image
"The sum of all available organic waste (21.55EJ/yr) & energy plants on marginal land (11.77EJ/yr) in China produced 23.30EJ of #bioenergy & reduced 2535.32Mt CO2-eq emissions, accounting for 19.48% & 25.61% of China’s T energy production & C emissions in 2020, respectively."

Furthermore, in this study, "life-cycle emission reductions were maximized by a mix of #bioenergy end uses based on #biomass properties, with an optimal 78.56% bioenergy allocation from biodiesel, densified solid biofuel, biohydrogen, and #biochar."

🚨💣The strangest geoengineering idea yet?💣🚨

A new paper suggests detonating an absolutely gigantic nuclear bomb (1,600x bigger than Tsar Bomba) deep beneath the seabed to accelerate carbon removal (#CDR).

A thread on this bold climate proposal:🧵1/11 Image
2/ Climate change is an existential threat, which is why some researchers explore extreme solutions. This one might be one of them.

The idea? Use a nuclear bomb to shatter massive amounts of basalt, speeding up Enhanced Rock Weathering (#ERW)—a natural carbon capture process.
3/ ERW works because rocks like basalt react with CO₂, locking it away in mineral form. Scientists have suggested that crushing basalt into fine particles accelerates this process. "But even when optimized, ERW is slow & limited in scale." That’s where the nuclear bomb comes in

🚨PAPER—The Arctic’s frozen ground, permafrost, holds massive reserves of ancient carbon. As the planet warms, this carbon faces a dangerous release into the atm, accelerating climate change. Could solar geoengineering (#SRM) help save it? The answer is complex.

DETAILS🧵 1/7 Image
2/7 Permafrost is warming faster than the global average, poised to unleash C stored for millennia. This creates a feedback loop—warming leads to more C release, which leads to more warming. Simulations show SRM could limit global warming to 1.5°C & slow permafrost thaw. But...
3/7 This research revealed that, at 1.5°C warming, permafrost loss is reduced by about 50% & carbon loss by about 33% due to SRM, compared to a high-emissions future (SSP5-8.5). However, significant losses still occur, even with SRM. By 2300, the damage remains substantial. Image
