#BECCS
Benchmarking the climate mitigation potential of #BECCS [Promoted content]: As the world grapples with the escalating climate crisis, it is becoming increasingly clear that reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions alone will not suffice. Experts globally are turning to negative emissions technologies to actively remove CO2 from the atmosphere, with bioenergy with #carboncapture and storage, known as #BECCS, being a clear frontrunner in the technology race, given its dual… https://www.euractiv.com/section/eet/opinion/benchmarking-the-climate-mitigation-potential-of-beccs/?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=dlvr.it
Sollten wir CO₂ in Bäumen einlagern, in Island in den Boden bringen oder auf andere Art und Weise speichern? Im Talk-Podcast sprechen wir über natürliche und technische Lösungen, um überschüssiges CO₂ wieder aus der Atmosphäre zu holen.

"In a context where Europe's land sinks are plummeting, mostly because of overharvesting our #forests and natural disturbances, it seems a terrible misstep for this report to recommend such massive incentives for #BECCS and the role of #carbon markets."

Ah, yes - #BECCS - Better Extract Capital, Scrapping Commitments - is profitable

As this is Mastodon, let me pre-emptively point out that, yes, these scientists are aware that >90% of teaching Climate Neutrality is about emissions reductions, not removals.
The IPCC is also aware of this, as am I at the European Commission.
All these people already wrote reports on that, this one is about land sinks and technological removals.

Atmospheric #CarbonRemoval through “Climate plantations” (bioenergy with carbon capture and storage #BECCS) is limited within #PlanetaryBoundaries, a new PIK study shows. But a more plant-based diet worldwide could free up significant areas. 👇
This publication is our analysis of the draft EU #carbon removal rules for #BECCS and #biochar.
There is a real risk that these methodologies, currently developed by the EU under the #CRCF, end up certifying activities consisting of a mere transfer between the biogenic & geological carbon pools, or even additional CO2 emissions, instead of actually removing it from the air.

@pluralistic this could become a global blueprint...
Interesting paper on #BECCS
Hard to do a lifecycle analysis -- system boundaries, biomass sourcing ...
In this case: "After 20 years the cumulative net CO2 emission is approximately −2MtCO2."
Not very cheap or effective...

Ohne eindeutige politische Leitplanken drohen bei der #Beccs-Technologie teure Fehlentwicklungen – auf Kosten der Steuerzahler, des Klimas, der Bioökonomie und vor allem der Wälder, warnen Michaela Kruse und Sven Selbert vom Naturschutzbund Deutschland (Nabu) in einem Gastbeitrag.

3 climate scientists spit their dummy https://theconversation.com/the-overshoot-myth-you-cant-keep-burning-fossil-fuels-and-expect-scientists-of-the-future-to-get-us-back-to-1-5-c-230814
#JamesDyke @jamesdyke , #RobertWatson and #WolfgangKnorr clean up after the #netZero party, carry #CDR #BECCS and #SRM out to the trash, sweep the floor with #overshoot scenarios before binning them, too.
It's a longish read. But since these 3 are real climate scientists in the trenches, their angry explosion is worth my time. I kept reminding myself who I am "listening to" because so much of it is my own vocabulary and anger, and I rarely if ever see the message put so clearly, bar all the ballads of utopia and hopium.
2 things I'd like to see now: en lieu of "2050 net zero", a timing for [avoiding] the civilisation crash, considering all milestones and deadlines for them.
I have done one. And one milestone deadline, a prerequisite for a subsequent 5year project in social politics, is end of 2024.
And the other thing, en lieu of SRM research, a new emission scenario to be filled with a new science body: SSP0-2040 or RCPcollapse2040 which inform the global ~40% crash survivors what changes to expect in regional climate and biosphere.
I have started on it. Taking the analog of the 1610 event, when 56mio Americans died and CO2 dropped by 7-11 ppm. From there we can look at, when civilisation crashes, how all the land is freed up currently under industrial agriculture use for the consumerism in EU and USA-CAN. This also includes all tropical ex-rainforest areas bc China's imports will cease as well when supply chains for fossil fuels break.
And while survival rate in rural China and other non-rich, non-tech-dependent rural regions is high-ish, (so their land use for energy is going to increase),
populations in EU and USA-CAN will almost vanish. Freeing up the whole landmass for plants.
A much larger area than 1610.
How big is the drop in CO2?
What are the side effects on regional level?
What steps need to be taken before the crash in order to save the environment from decades or century-long industrial and radiation pollution from all the suddenly unmanned factories, fossil extraction sites, nuclear reactors? Especially mid-latitude pollution must be prevented so that survivors can leave their own eventually inhospitable climate zones to migrate there, without facing a 3 times reduced life expectancy due to untreated cancers.
Such a short life expectancy is too little time for amassing then-relevant knowledge and skills and to hand it over to next generations. Too short for meaningful survival.
Article is about a UK #bioenergy power plant that burns imported wood pellets from the US. It received scrutiny in a report because it produced more CO2 in 2023 than the now-offline last #coal power plant. But it's not the real problem, IMO.
The UK tax payers heavily subsidise the wood-burning as sustainable and CO2-neutral, and because of the promise 😁 of 100% carbon capture and storage by 2030.
#BECCS #CCS
But the claimed sustainability, ie not felling forests for the imported pellets, is not monitored by the government, at all.
Remember: everything profitable is attracting sociopaths and requires monitoring and harsh personal sentences for managers AND shareholders as incentive to adhere to rules.
And now read this:
"The FTSE 100 owner of the Drax power plant made profits of £500m over the first half of this year, helped by biomass subsidies of almost £400m over this period. It handed its shareholders a windfall of £300m for the first half of the year." 😁 https://www.theguardian.com/environment/article/2024/aug/09/biomass-power-station-produced-four-times-emissions-of-uk-coal-plant-says-report
