Utilisation de l’information et données relatives au changement climatique, ses impacts et l’adaptation dans les politiques et stratégies au Bénin: résultats des entretiens

Une évaluation des politiques et stratégies nationales a été réalisée en vue de définir dans quelle mesure elles intègrent des données et informations scientifiques relatives au changement climatique. Cette étude est basée sur une revue systématique des documents de politiques et stratégies de développement (nationales et sectorielles) et d’interviews avec les acteurs politiques.

What role do forests and governance play in countries’ nationally determined contributions to the Paris Agreement? Case study from Cameroon

This study focuses on the place of forest governance in Cameroon's nationally determined contribution to the Paris Agreement and highlights the challenges related to the integration of land use in development and the implementation of national climate policies.

Climate impacts from a removal of anthropogenic aerosol emissions

Limiting global warming to 1.5 or 2.0°C requires strong mitigation of anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Concurrently, emissions of anthropogenic aerosols will decline, due to coemission with GHG, and measures to improve air quality. However, the combined climate effect of GHG and aerosol emissions over the industrial era is poorly constrained. This study shows the climate impacts from removing present-day anthropogenic aerosol emissions and compares them to the impacts from moderate GHG-dominated global warming.

What's on the table? Mitigating agricultural emissions while achieving food security: analysis

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.

Ten key short-term sectoral benchmarks to limit warming to 1.5°C

This article identifies and quantifies the 10 most important benchmarks for climate action to be taken by 2020–2025 to keep the window open for a 1.5°C-consistent GHG emission pathway.
