RESCUE Climate

🌍What is RESCUE? We investigate the Earth system response to climate neutrality scenarios, providing science-based policy-relevant recommendations on the role that carbon dioxide removal (CDR) can play in the coming decades. 🔍Check out our poster & visit our web!🔗 rescue-climate.eu/about-us/pro...

A recently published RESCUE study shows that temporary #carbonremoval can compensate for non-CO2 climate forcers, particularly short-lived species whose compensation ratios are fairly insensitive to the choice of time horizon. 🔗 Read here: He Y. et al. (2026). buff.ly/b1csq0O (image:Fig.4 paper)

Earlier this month, RESCUE organised a policy roundtable in Brussels, which brought together researchers and policymakers to discuss climate modeling insights on carbon dioxide removal under overshoot and no-overshoot scenarios, and their relevance for climate policy. 👉Read more: buff.ly/QrVczBn
