Greenhouse gas removal technologies: Who should foot the bill?

This article discusses who should pay for carbon removal technologies such as CCUS, DAC, and BECCS. Newly published research co-authored…


Learning from nature to reconcile economic upgrading with biodiversity conservation? Biomimicry as an innovation policy

In this first study of the potential of biomimicry as an innovation strategy in developing countries, the author investigates how nations can leverage their biodiversity as a knowledge bank of solutions to both current and future challenges.


Net zero will require the biggest economic transformation ever seen in peacetime, says Nicholas Stern
