Delays and Disagreements: The IPCC’s Struggle to Stay on Course

Union of Concerned Scientists

Working Group 3: Mitigation of Climate Change Evaluates pathways for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, sustainable development strategies, and the role of finance, technology, and policy in achieving net-zero emissions. Delegates questioned when (or if) the IPCC should develop methodologies for technologies with unclear risks.

Why the IPCC 7th Assessment Matters

Union of Concerned Scientists

Many would like to see the next assessment reports completed earlier than the typical 6-7 year cycle to better align with the second UNFCCC Global Stocktake due in 2028. While the IPCC is independent of any policymaking, the outputs are critical to inform policy work. What will future meetings look like?

Statement in Response to New Hydrogen Handouts From the Federal Government

Enviromental Defense

Hydrogen is being presented as a key climate change solution because when it is burned, it doesn’t create any greenhouse gas emissions. billion by 2028 and $17.7 It is currently prohibitively expensive and technologically challenging to transport hydrogen. And it leaks a lot. billion by 2035.

UCS Testimony on the Clean Hydrogen Production Tax Credit

Union of Concerned Scientists

UCS supports Treasury’s proposed temporal-matching requirement, with a phase-in of hourly matching by 2028 with no exemptions for legacy producers. Offsets would be entirely discordant with the intention of 45V, which is specifically designed to incentivize technology and process innovations to enable truly clean hydrogen production.

Abandoned Well Citizen Expert Laurie Barr, University Of Pennsylvania Prof. Jennifer Wilcox Recognized On The Grist 50 List

PA Environment Daily

These wells are sometimes hidden deep in forests, on public roads, even under homes, slowly corroding and leaking methane, a potent greenhouse gas. That money is not without its controversies — CCS technologies are still in early stages — but Wilcox sees the opportunity in funding technologies with potential for significant carbon reduction.
