  Governance of carbon dioxide removal (CDR): an AI-enhanced systematic map of the scientific literature

  June 12, 2024 / 14:30 – 16:00 Review ecosystem on the state of knowledge in CDR

  H 3005

  Presenter:

  Sarah Lück

  For limiting global warming to well below 2°C is not enough to rapidly reduce GHG emissions we also need to actively remove CO2 from the atmosphere. Given that the broader innovation literature consistently finds long time periods involved in scaling up and deploying novel technologies, there is an urgency to developing Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) […]

  Towards an Ecosystem of Systematic Reviews for Assessing the State of Knowledge in Carbon Dioxide Removal

  June 12, 2024 / 14:30 – 16:00 Review ecosystem on the state of knowledge in CDR

  H 3005

  Presenter:

  Sabine Fuss

  The IPCC’s Sixth Assessment Cycle has clearly shown that Carbon Dioxide removal (CDR) is an essential element of any strategy geared towards achieving the Paris climate goals. Yet, the first edition of the State of CDR Report has indicated a significant gap between how much CDR is deployed even in the most ambitious Paris-consistent mitigation […]

  Systematic review on side-effects of CDR methods

  June 12, 2024 / 14:30 – 16:00 Review ecosystem on the state of knowledge in CDR

  H 3005

  Presenter:

  Sylvia Vetter

  The interest in carbon dioxide removal (CDR) methods as solutions to mitigate climate change by capturing and sequestering atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) received considerable political and public interest in recent years. However, the deployment of these technologies is not without side-effects, involving complex trade-offs and co-benefits impacting on the environment, society, and the economy. We […]

  A new taxonomy to map evidence on carbon dioxide removal side effects

  June 12, 2024 / 14:30 – 16:00 Review ecosystem on the state of knowledge in CDR

  H 3005

  Presenter:

  Ruben Prütz

  Beyond rapid emission reductions, carbon dioxide removal (CDR) is critical to ambitious climate change mitigation strategies, yet the environmental, socio-political, and economic implications of its deployment remain insufficiently understood. Recent exponential growth in literature is rapidly filling this gap but makes synthesizing the evidence on CDR side effects increasingly challenging. We address this issue by […]

  A systematic review on the monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) of Carbon Dioxide Removal

  June 12, 2024 / 14:30 – 16:00 Review ecosystem on the state of knowledge in CDR

  H 3005

  Presenter:

  Ingrid Schulte

  Despite growing demand for carbon dioxide removal (CDR), there remains uncertainty around the integrity and quality of CO2 removal activities. Establishing robust monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) systems that support the veracity of CDR claims is essential to scaling investment and deployment. Yet, knowledge on MRV of CDR remains patchy and confusing. Synthesizing the latest […]

  Are Payments for Forest Conservation a Cost-Effective Way to Fight Climate Change? A Meta-Analysis

  June 12, 2024 / 12:00 – 13:30 Land use: evidence synthesis

  H 3005

  Presenter:

  Sylvain Chabe-Ferret

  Deforestation, especially in the tropics, is bad news. It contributes to climate change, but also to the degradation of biodiversity and the decrease in the quality and availability of water re-sources. Payments for forest conservation, which compensate landowners for the preservation of forest cover, have been proposed as a way to curb deforestation. Very conflicting […]

  Interventions promoting resilience through climate-smart agricultural practices for women farmers: a systematic review

  June 12, 2024 / 12:00 – 13:30 Land use: evidence synthesis

  H 3005

  Presenter:

  Ashrita Saran

  Women farmers in many developing countries are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and lack the ability to adapt quickly due to their limited access to resources such as land, capital and technology. As a result, they are less likely to be able to adopt Climate-smart Agricultural Approaches (CSA) approaches that can reduce […]

  Institutional innovations for mainstreaming climate-smart agriculture in policy and programs: a systematic review of barriers and enablers

  June 12, 2024 / 12:00 – 13:30 Land use: evidence synthesis

  H 3005

  Presenter:

  Alcade Segnon

  The severe and disruptive climate change impacts on agriculture and food systems will continue to jeopardize the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in sub-Saharan Africa if unprecedented efforts and actions are not committed to climate-resilient development pathways. While deploying and upscaling climate-resilient technologies, is crucial, institutional innovations for mainstreaming climate-resilient innovations in agricultural […]

  Making climate solutions work for women in agri-food systems: Building an evidence base to catalyze action

  June 12, 2024 / 12:00 – 13:30 Land use: evidence synthesis

  H 3005

  Presenter:

  Aayushi Malhotra

  Climate resilient agri-food systems are critical for global food security and public health. Within these systems, vulnerable socio-economic groups, particularly women, bear the brunt of disproportionate impacts of climate change, necessitating a re-evaluation of solution designs. Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA), acknowledged as a viable solution for sustainable agricultural development, is a holistic approach for enhancing […]

  Crop, livestock, and forestry integration to reconcile soil health, food production, and climate change mitigation in the Brazilian Cerrado: A review

  June 12, 2024 / 12:00 – 13:30 Land use: evidence synthesis

  H 3005

  Presenter:

  Dener Oliveira

  Integrated crop-livestock (ICL) and crop-livestock-forest (ICLF) systems have been widely adopted in the Brazilian Cerrado. Accordingly, an enormous increase in the number of publications evaluating ICL and ICLF systems has been observed in the last decade. However, to the best of our knowledge, this information has never been analyzed together in a comprehensive way. Here, […]

  A map of the evidence of climate change and biodiversity interventions on environmental and human outcomes in L&MICs

  June 12, 2024 / 12:00 – 13:30 Land use: evidence synthesis

  H 3005

  Presenter:

  Pierre Marion

  Climate change and biodiversity loss are interconnected crises, with feedback loops that can exacerbate both issues. Low- and middle-income countries (L&MICs) are disproportionately affected by both crises as livelihoods in these countries often depend on local natural, animal, and plant resources. They also face greater exposure to changing environmental conditions and to more frequent and […]

  The effect of policy norms on public acceptance of pro-environmental policy measures

  June 12, 2024 / 10:00 – 11:30 Political economy of climate policy 

  H 3005

  Presenter:

  Nick Harring

  There is a substantial body of research investigating and mapping the factors influencing citizens' attitudes toward climate policy instruments. Based on reviews and meta-analyses we also have a quite clear idea about the role of various determinants. Despite this extensive examination, there remains considerable variation in policy attitudes that demands further exploration, not the least […]
