  1. Agrifood byproducts are described as valuable resources for sustainability
    Review of agrifood by-product valorization pathways for extracting bioactive compounds and advancing sustainable food systems through pharmaceutical, food, packaging, and cosmetic applications.
  2. Public support for carbon pricing stayed stable in Germany
    Study examines public support for carbon pricing in Germany 2019-2022, revealing that energy costs reduce backing while preferences shift toward social protection over environmental spending.
  3. Mixed fossil mitigation and CDR best matched climate and economic goals
    Study evaluates COP28 negative emission technologies through five global scenarios, finding that combined fossil fuel reduction with moderate carbon removal optimally meets 1.5°C targets while.
  4. Mandatory AI emissions disclosure appears operationally feasible
    Feasibility analysis of mandatory emissions disclosure for AI research using tiered policies and Monte-Carlo simulation, demonstrating high coverage with minimal operational burden on research venues.
  5. Lake Mai Ndombe emits multiple greenhouse gases year-round
    Study quantifies greenhouse gas emissions from Lake Mai Ndombe, Africa's largest humic lake, revealing sedimentary processes drive CO2, CH4, and N2O cycling and evasion.
  6. Large CDR pathways may discourage faster emissions cuts
    Analysis of how reliance on carbon dioxide removal in climate scenarios may substitute for immediate emissions reductions, creating carbon budget overshoot and justice concerns.
  7. Carbon trading linked to higher well-being in Chinese cities
    Analysis of 273 Chinese cities from 2008-2020 reveals carbon emissions trading systems improve well-being through green innovation, with heterogeneous effects across regions.
  8. Non-permanent carbon removal can lower mitigation costs
    Welfare analysis of permanent versus non-permanent carbon dioxide removal: non-permanent CDR lowers near-term mitigation costs but does not reduce long-run temperatures; policy requires.
