Prioritizing global tall forests toward the 30 × 30 goals
Abstract The Global Deal for Nature sets an ambitious goal to protect 30% of Earth's land and ocean by 2030. The 30 × 30 initiative is a way to allocate conservation resources and extend protection to conserve vulnerable and underprotected ecosystems while reducing carbon emissions to combat climate change.

Abstract Emissions trading schemes (ETS) have spread across the globe to tackle climate change. However, limited attention has been given to how ETS characteristics and designs differ and why. We use the concept of institutional complementarity to explore how the EU ETS and South Korea's ETS (K‐ETS) adapt to complement established political economy ...

Net‐zero carbon declarations by Japanese local governments: What caused the domino‐like diffusion?
Abstract Sub‐national governments are a crucial non‐state actor for mitigating climate change. This importance has recently strengthened as increasing numbers of municipalities declare net‐zero carbon emission goals to support the Paris Agreement, often well ahead of national governments.

Retaining natural vegetation to safeguard biodiversity and humanity
Abstract Global efforts to deliver internationally agreed goals to reduce carbon emissions, halt biodiversity loss, and retain essential ecosystem services have been poorly integrated. These goals rely in part on preserving natural (e.g., native, largely unmodified) and seminatural (e.g., low intensity or sustainable human use) forests, woodlands, and ...

Due to climate change, the breeding range of the two Asian subspecies of Black‐tailed Godwit would shift northward in the future, accompanied by a significant decline in suitable breeding range size. Abstract Habitat loss and shifts associated with climate change threaten global biodiversity, with impacts likely to be most pronounced at high latitudes.

Abstract Carbon taxes are frequently advocated as a means of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, yet their political feasibility remains a challenge. To enhance their political appeal, carbon tax proponents have proposed revenue recycling as a means of alleviating public concern with this instrument's visible costs.

Rewilding in the face of climate change
Abstract Expansion of the global protected‐area network has been proposed as a strategy to address threats from accelerating climate change and species extinction. A key step in increasing the effectiveness of such expansion is understanding how novel threats to biodiversity from climate change alter concepts such as rewilding, which have underpinned ...

能源电力的充分共享是实现区域乃至世界范围内低碳可持续发展的关键途径。结合清洁低碳电源规划要求,提出一套考虑碳排放约束的跨国电源优化规划方法。根据各国未来能源电力宏观发展需求及碳排放目标,建立了跨国电源最优规划模型以及生产模拟仿真模型相结合的电源规划方法。跨国电源最优规划模型根据碳排放等宏观约束求解新建电源结构,应用考虑碳排放成本的生产模拟仿真模型针对求解电源结构进行模拟,统计分析化石能源机组的碳排放量指标,分析仿真指标与宏观发展目标的参数偏差,矫正跨国电源规划最优模型参数,再次求解电源规划方案。通过 ...

碳排放权交易(碳交易)是推动二氧化碳减排的重要手段,基于空间特征的研究有利于全面、准确地理解碳排放权交易市场的减排效果。基于中国1999—2017年285个地级市的平衡面板数据,通过空间双重差分模型探究碳交易试点的减排效果及传导机制。研究发现:第一,碳交易不但能有效促进本地二氧化碳减排,而且对周边地区还存在一定溢出效应;第二,碳交易可以推动试点地区与周边地区经济增长,同时驱动二氧化碳减排;第三,碳交易在工业规模更大的地区有更好的二氧化减排效果及溢出效应;第四 ...

老龄生活垃圾填埋场渗滤液具有可生化性差、氨氮高以及C/N失调等特点,采用传统生化脱氮工艺需投加大量碳源,处理成本高且整体碳排放量大。为降低脱氮运行成本,实现减污降碳目标,以某老龄填埋场的渗滤液处理项目为例,采用精馏脱氮组合技术取代传统A/O+MBR工艺作为主要脱氮单元,同时通过沼气锅炉燃烧沼气产生蒸汽的方式为精馏脱氮单元提供热源,实现填埋气资源循环利用。基于IPCC排放因子法,以传统脱氮工艺碳排放量为基准线,对两种不同脱氮工艺碳排放特征进行分析。结果表明:A/O ...
