This episode explains how organizations actually measure Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, from direct monitoring sensors to spreadsheets full of PDF invoices. It explores the RECs loophole that can cause two identical buildings to report emissi…

This study proposes a method to fuse satellite-derived crop productivity, in-situ soil organic carbon measurements, and a soil carbon model (YASSO15) to estimate annual carbon exchange at parcel scale. The GPP model uses Sentinel-2 red edge…

This paper provides code and derived results for a product-level Trade-LCA framework for embodied carbon accounting in global trade. No datasets are bundled; users must obtain inputs from their respective providers. The framework enables pr…

This paper reanalyzes 44 REDD+ projects and finds that over-crediting was widespread. Sensitivity analysis shows that unobserved confounders cannot fully account for the reported over-crediting, advocating for routine sensitivity checks in …

This paper proposes a dynamic corporate carbon credit evaluation framework integrating power-carbon signals (e.g., carbon intensity, compliance records). It combines physical metrics with ESG disclosures via Bayesian AHP-CRITIC weighting to…

This paper analyzes how different accounting methods for carbon removal credits affect their integrity and actual emission reduction outcomes. It demonstrates that the choice of accounting standards can determine market credibility, offerin…

This paper develops a time-explicit method for offsetting the warming impact of methane emissions with temporary carbon sinks. It shows that a 20-year CO2 removal can counterbalance the 100-year warming effect of a methane pulse, providing …

This study investigates alkali-activated ground granulated blast furnace slag (AAS) for stabilizing Hong Kong Marine Deposits (MD). At a water-to-binder ratio of 4, AAS-stabilized MD achieves 4.5 times higher 28-day strength than ordinary P…

This paper proposes a dual-purpose accounting framework for the net-zero transition, integrating financial and carbon accounting to enable consistent reporting of emission reductions and financial performance. It aims to enhance transition …

Kara S.

This paper discusses how Life Cycle Engineering (LCE) can contribute to achieving net-zero targets. LCE enables environmental burden reduction across all stages of products and processes, providing a crucial framework for corporate decarbon…

EXIOFUTURES is a scenario-based extension of EXIOBASE for exploring how future socioeconomic change, technology shifts, policy choices, and consumption patterns may reshape global environmental footprints. It uses a multi-regional input-out…

Yu Xue, Yan Ning, Yi-Zheng Zhang +7

This study evaluates whether digital carbon platforms can operationalize consumption-based mitigation using data from 15,351 individuals. Propensity score matching shows participants achieve approximately 42% greater per-capita emission red…

Bulfaro, Isabella, Sánchez, Anna, Fadul, Mikel +3

This study systematically compares GHG emissions from biomethane splitting for hydrogen and solid carbon under three accounting frameworks: EU RED III, UK Low Carbon Hydrogen Standard, and ISO LCA. RED III underestimates removal potential b…

Using a new machine-learning global FFCO2 dataset (Vulcan-UrbanML), this study estimates urban share of global territorial FFCO2 emissions at 63.6-69.9% for 2022, and consumption-based urban share at 65.3-79.3%. Per capita urban emissions a…
