Germany is falling short on #CO2 reduction targets in transport and buildings. On the brighter side, PIK director #Edenhofer sees a major boost in solar power and faster wind turbine approvals as government successes, he tells @FinancialTimes.

Big polluters should clean up the atmosphere, writes @politico. The @esabcc_eu, with PIK director #Edenhofer at its helm, has issued a report focused on scaling up carbon removals, an essential but underdeveloped element to curbing #globalwarming.

Policy design is crucial.

Nice @Forbes analysis about public attitudes on #climate draws on our @NatureClimate article on pros and cons of fossil heating bans. “Both schools of thought are correct under certain conditions” (PIK Director #Edenhofer).

Important read on aligning EU climate policy with strategic priorities: The new report by @esabcc_eu, chaired by PIK director Ottmar #Edenhofer. ⬇️

In its new advice, the @esabcc_eu reaffirms its recommendation for EU policy: a 90–95% net domestic reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2040 is both feasible and keeps the EU on a credible path to climate neutrality.
