The European Climate Network Observatory uses an indicator-based framework that tracks progress across traditional economic sectors (electricity, industry, etc.) as well as the cross-cutting areas that have...

Ireland’s current Long-term Strategy on Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reductions sets out indicative pathways, beyond 2030, towards achieving carbon neutrality for Ireland by 2050...

In this report, published by EIT Food North-West in collaboration with Innovate UK KTN, we explore how the ruminant livestock industry in the UK and Ireland can achieve net...

The exploitation of forest biomass for bioenergy is commonly perceived as part of a broad strategy for climate change mitigation due to the view that forest biomass is carbon neutral. The aims of this study...

Agricultural food production is a main driver of global greenhouse gas emissions, with unclear pathways towards carbon neutrality. Here, through a comprehensive life-cycle assessment using...

To balance out the impacts of our CO2 emissions, the EU will need to drastically reduce its reliance on fossil carbon, upscale carbon farming to store more...

To become carbon neutral by 2050, the European Union (EU27) net carbon sink from forests should increase from the current level of about -360 Mt CO2e yr-1...
