GC53B:
Carbon Budgets for Ambitious Climate Goals and the Role of Large-Scale Carbon Negative Bioenergy/Carbon Removal in Meeting Them II Posters

Submit an Abstract to this Session



Session ID#: 31562

Session Description:
It has long been known that all-time cumulative emissions of carbon dioxide are the primary driver of long-term climate change. However, uncertainty persists over the allowable remaining cumulative emissions consistent with limiting warming to levels compatible with the goals of the Paris Agreement, particularly when temporary overshoots in warming, uncertainty in future non-CO2 climate forcing and negative emissions technologies are considered. Meeting potentially small remaining carbon budgets, as well as dealing with uncertainty in their magnitude, poses substantial policy challenges due to socio-economic inertia in the rate at which future emissions trajectories can be adjusted. This session presents contributions focused on our physical understanding of the remaining carbon budget for meeting ambitious climate goals, economic, technological and policy implications of meeting such ambitious carbon budgets, and interdisciplinary assessments of this inherrently multi-disciplinary issue.
