Potential Co-benefits and trade-offs between improved soil management, climate change mitigation and agri-food productivity

by Caroline Kennedy | Feb 8, 2022

Maximising resource-use efficiency, productivity and environmental sustainability are all fundamental requirements to raise global food production by ~70 per cent in order to feed a world population of ~9.7 billion people by 2050. Perhaps the most vital resource...

Carbon Capture and Storage at the end of a lost decade

by Eamonn | Oct 21, 2021

Following the landmark 2015 United Nations Paris Agreement, a growing number of countries are committing to the transition to net-zero emissions. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has been consistently heralded to directly address emissions from the energy and...

CO2 mitigation or removal: The optimal uses of biomass in energy system decarbonization

by Admin | Jun 23, 2021

Owing to its versatility, biomass can be used for a range of CO2 mitigation and removal options. The recent adoption of end-of-century temperature targets at the global scale, along with mid-century economy-wide net zero emission targets in Europe, has boosted demand...

The role of bioenergy with carbon capture and storage in the UK’s net-zero pathway

by Admin | May 25, 2021

This report explores the potential role for bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) in the UK’s pathway to net-zero by 2050, and the implications for sustainability and policy. It concludes that BECCS could make a significant contribution to meeting...
