OffsetsDB just got bigger. Today, we added two new offset registries — Isometric and Cercarbono — to our open database that standardizes information about offset projects and their credits. Now researchers can access data from seven registries, which cover the vast majority of the carbon market.
For Open Climate Risk, we created our highest-resolution dataset yet. To make it explorable and downloadable by anyone with a browser, we turned to cloud-native formats and open source tools. We wrote about our new web mapping stack: carbonplan.org/blog/mapping...
We’ve officially opened the search for CarbonPlan’s next Executive Director, and would love your help sharing the position profile. Refer candidates or apply by May 29 for priority consideration: www.goodcitizen.com/executive-se...
This mistake is a reminder that we still have a lot to learn about simulating enhanced weathering. We’re still in the learning phase, and mistakes are inevitable. For now, while methods and norms are rapidly developing, model results should be understood as provisional.
In enhanced weathering models, more rock surface area typically means faster weathering and more carbon removal. But some models use a mistaken surface area equation that could inflate carbon removal by up to two orders of magnitude. Our latest post explains the mistake and how to move forward.
