“This is a big opportunity… The fruit is large, it’s low [hanging], it’s ripe.” The US and China account for nearly 80% of global #N2O industrial emissions. With renewed energy to cooperate on tackling this #climate super pollutant there is a chance that N2O will no longer be the forgotten greenhouse gas. In fact, we may soon see unforgettable levels of international climate cooperation. https://lnkd.in/gux2tTyU

#ClimateTransitions in the Wild: "A Brazilian cattle rancher has been ordered to pay more than $50m (£39m) for destroying part of the Amazon rainforest and ordered to restore the precious carbon sink." #Brazil is in the midst of a new era of enforcing environmental regulation and policies tied to #climatechange impacts. https://lnkd.in/gHNiH72J Internationally, the EU has published its #EUDR #Deforestation Due Diligence Statement Registry tool for the creation of due diligence statements within company supply chains to show compliance with the rules of the anti-deforestation regulation. https://lnkd.in/dGXC-ieu Investors and businesses need to develop a systematic approach to understanding how investments made today will be impacted by the ebb and flow, but overall increase, in new policies designed to eliminate emissions and reward climate positive business practices. Orbitas is pioneering the modelling and research for how we can understand and strategically plan for climate transitions. Follow us to get our latest research and insights.

Our event Tuesday brought to light continued emphasis from the #Biden administration to work with #China on tackling climate #superpollutants like #N2O. At a White House summit later in the day a new commitment that, "U.S. companies that emit nitrous oxide (N2O), a super-pollutant 273 times more powerful than carbon dioxide, will voluntarily cut their emissions, reducing overall U.S. industrial N2O emissions more than 50 percent from 2020 levels by early next year" was announced. Thanks to Lili Pike for her thorough coverage on this issue over the past few years with Foreign Policy. Industrial N2O emissions are a serious issue as this super polluting #greenhousegas is entering our atmosphere faster than the worst case scenarios predicted. As the US and China account for nearly 80% of industrial N2O emissions, we are encouraged to see this critical, but conquerable, climate challenge is receiving more attention. But this isn't the whole story for N2O. Other sources of emissions and actions are needed. Climate Advisers is in the process of building a first of it's kind N2O action initiative to be launched later this year.
