Non-permanent carbon removals #CDR, like afforestation, cannot compensate for emissions as permanent ones can. This should be reflected in #CarbonPricing. PIK study in Environmental and Resource Economics provides guidance, calculates the price difference. pik-potsdam.de/en/news/latest…
"Depending on how the additional tax revenues were redistributed, such a change could cost households as little as €26 a year, while cutting ecological destruction by between 3% and 6%" - new paper led by PIK researcher Charlotte Plinke in the @guardian. theguardian.com/environment/20…
PIK study @NatureFoodJnl shows the ecological footprint from #diets ➡️Share of #climate gases private households EU: 23% ➡️Share in other indicators: up to 71% Full value added tax on meat could be a first step towards pricing the environmental damages pik-potsdam.de/en/news/latest…

“We are at the beginning of the end of the fossil fuel economy. The US is betting on the wrong horse.” PIK Director @jrockstrom spoke to @nytimes about how the clean energy transition is gathering speed despite the actions of the Trump administration. nytimes.com/2026/01/12/cli…
Europe’s forests are weakening under heat, drought & pests, yet climate targets rely on them. This is dangerous says PIKs @jrockstrom because "countries can use their carbon sink from forests to say they're net zero without fully phasing out fossil fuels.” theguardian.com/environment/20…
Can carbon removal help reverse climate change? In the latest VoxTalks Economics, Ottmar Edenhofer (Director, @PIK_Climate & Chair, European Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change) joins @timsvengali to discuss policies that could make it work. Recorded at the…
“The U.S. turns its back against science, against global collaboration, against any kind of action on #climatechange,” PIK Director @jrockstrom says on the U.S. pulling out of the @UNFCCC. “The world loses a lot and it is very damaging.” apnews.com/article/trump-…
