This paper analyses how EU railway policy for a low-carbon future can be enhanced, drawing insights from Japan and Switzerland.

Climate change adaptation needs, as well as the capacity to adapt, are unequally distributed around the world. Here we propose ways to quantify adaptive capacity within the framework of Shared Socioeconomic Pathways, a scenario set widely used by climate impact and integrated assessment models.

This study finds that the jet stream – air currents in the upper atmosphere – can synchronise extreme weather caused by climate change, resulting in crop failures in multiple countries at the same time.

Our new method applies sustainability limits and minimises the need for carbon dioxide removal to set key 2030 global targets for renewables, fossil fuels and emissions.

The dependence of different land cover and land management change options on the background climate are still poorly understood across different Earth system models.

This study examines the first and second Nationally Determined Contributions of the eleven least developed countries in West Africa, namely Benin, Burkina Faso, Gambia, Guinea, Guinea Bissau, Liberia, Mali, Niger, Senegal, Sierra Leone and Togo.
