![What's on the table? Mitigating agricultural emissions while achieving food security: analysis](https://ca1-clm.edcdn.com/publications/_c400x565/CAT_2018-01-23_DecarbAgriculture_CATAnalysis_2023-10-24-123446_rcvk.pdf-92730.jpg?v=1706770443)
Briefings
A new analysis of agricultural emissions shows that reducing emissions through changes in farming practices alone will not be enough to limit global warming to 1.5°C, but changing our diets and reducing food waste could make significant additional reductions.
![Why using 20-year Global Warming Potentials (GWPs) for emission targets are a very bad idea for climate policy](https://ca1-clm.edcdn.com/publications/_c400x565/20-year_gwps_bad_idea_for_climate_policy_16112017.pdf-6941.jpg?v=1706770444)

![The dangers of blue carbon offsets: from hot air to hot water?](https://ca1-clm.edcdn.com/publications/_c400x565/blue_carbon_briefing_16112017.pdf-7251.jpg?v=1706770444)
Briefings
There has been much talk of “Blue Carbon” in the Bonn climate negotiations. But what does it really mean? This briefing sets out the issues and finds that the use of blue carbon to offset and hence effectively avoid required emission reductions in other sectors would undermine our ability to limit temperature rise to 1.5°C.
![About 80% of EU and German, virtually all Polish coal plants non-compliant with new EU 2021 air pollution regulations](https://ca1-clm.edcdn.com/publications/_c400x565/coal_germany_briefing_15112017.pdf-82784.jpg?v=1706861293)
Briefings
Apart from being the largest source of CO2 emissions, coal combustion is also a major threat to public health globally. About 82% of EU, 80% German and virtually all Polish coal power plants do not comply with a new EU regulation on industry air pollution emissions standards that they need to meet by 2021.
![“Because the ocean” – achieving the Paris Agreement 1.5°C temperature limit](https://ca1-clm.edcdn.com/publications/_c400x565/climate_risks_oceans_09112017_1.pdf-7487.jpg?v=1706861293)
Briefings
This briefing provides an overview of the latest science on key risks for ocean systems including from sea-level rise, ocean acidification and impacts on coral reefs and other marine and coastal ecosystems.
![Tropical cyclones: impacts, the link to climate change and adaptation](https://ca1-clm.edcdn.com/publications/_c400x565/tropical_cyclones_impacts_cc_adaptation_2.pdf-8937.jpg?v=1706861294)
Briefings
Following the string of high-intensity tropical cyclones in the Atlantic basin in 2017 and the devastating impacts on small island states, a number of questions have been raised about linkages between these cyclones and climate change. This briefing provides clarity on scientifically-supported connections between existing tropical cyclones and climate change.
