SUMMARY:International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction
DESCRIPTION:This year’s International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction is all about governance. You can measure good disaster risk governance in lives saved\, reduced numbers of disaster-affected people and reduced economic losses. COVID-19 and the climate emergency are telling us that we need clear vision\, plans and competent\, empowered institutions acting on scientific evidence for the public good. \nThis requires having national and local strategies for disaster risk reduction in place by the end of the year as agreed by UN Member States when they adopted the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction in 2015. We need to see strategies that address not just single hazards like floods and storms\, but those that respond to systemic risk generated by zoonotic diseases\, climate shocks and environmental breakdown. \nGood national and local strategies for disaster risk reduction must be multi-sectoral\, linking policies in areas such as land use\, building codes\, public health\, education\, agriculture\, environmental protection\, energy\, water resources\, poverty reduction and climate change adaptation.

SUMMARY:WRF 2021
DESCRIPTION:The natural resources embedded in Earth System represent humanity’s greatest common wealth. Yet\, looking at today’s reality\, we see resource governance processes that are highly ineffective\, unequal\, exploitative and non-transparent. Such processes substantially contribute to environmental degradation\, and disproportionately impact communities and natural ecosystems around the world\, hindering rather than providing opportunities for development. \nWRF 2021\, co-hosted by the World Resources Forum Association and the Ghanaian Ministry of Environment\, Science\, Technology and Innovation (MESTI)\, provides a platform for an open and inclusive multi-stakeholder dialogue to highlight challenges\, share best practices\, and promote collaborative innovation to mobilise concerted action for the improvement of natural resource governance.

SUMMARY:EU CCUS Forum
DESCRIPTION:The European Commission is pleased to announce the first high-level forum to engage and facilitate discussions on carbon capture\, utilisation and storage (CCUS). The forum is designed to involve all relevant stakeholders\, representatives of the EU institutions and EU countries to facilitate deployment of CCUS technologies. The launch of the forum will take place in the presence of both Executive Vice president Frans Timmermans and Commissioner for Energy Kadri Simson. \nThe European Green Deal identifies the need for a regulatory framework that fosters the development of innovative technologies and infrastructure such as CCUS. Developing the first commercial applications of these technologies could enable EU industries to become climate and resource frontrunners. \nIn addition\, the Energy System Integration Strategy recognises a role for carbon capture\, storage and use in a climate-neutral energy system to support deep decarbonisation\, including synthetic fuels. Combined with renewable hydrogen\, captured CO2 can be used to produce synthetic gases\, fuels and feedstocks while at the same time decarbonising hard-to-abate sectors. \nClosing the gap to climate neutrality by 2050 would require innovative solutions for capturing CO2 and durably storing it in ecosystems\, geological reservoirs or products. Technological solutions such as the combination of bioenergy or direct air captured CO2 with CCUS have the potential to remove several hundred million tonnes of CO2 per year. \nThe first edition of the forum will be held on-line in a virtual format taking into account the uncertainty of travel due to COVID and with the aim to open up for a larger participation.

SUMMARY:Is green hydrogen really carbon-neutral?
DESCRIPTION:As the EU moves away from its dependency on fossil fuel\, hydrogen is expected to play a key role in our future energy systems\, and for delivering on the aim set out in the European Green Deal of achieving carbon-neutrality in the EU by 2050. \nThe cleanest option of hydrogen is renewable hydrogen\, often referred to as green hydrogen. It is created by putting renewable energy sources like wind and solar power through an electrolyser\, and its only by-product is water. Accordingly\, its production is almost emission-free\, which is why it is the form of production generating the most interest – from policymakers\, scientists and investors. \nJoin this EURACTIV Virtual Conference to discuss what we know and what we don’t yet know about green hydrogen\, and when and how to use hydrogen most effectively to decarbonise Europe.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Carbon capture and storage and the SDGs
DESCRIPTION:IEAGHG recently commissioned independent research organization TNO to undertake a study mapping carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies against some of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in order to assess how CCS can contribute to the achievement of the SDGs. \nJoin us to discover the key findings and the role CCS can play in helping to meet the 2030 Agenda. \nThe report highlights a number of positive interactions with the SDGs – such as helping to lower emissions in the power and industrial sectors\, and enabling the provision of reliable\, sustainable and modern energy. It also identifies some negative impacts – such as constraining energy efficiency targets and increasing lifecycle emissions.

SUMMARY:Hydrogen – The energy of the future for heavy industry and transport?
DESCRIPTION:Brussels is placing a lot of hope in hydrogen as a potential fuel to decarbonize heavy transport as well as energy-intensive industry sectors like steel and cement. If hydrogen can be rolled out to power trucks\, trains\, planes and to make steel\, the Commission estimates it would account for between 13 percent and 14 percent of the EU’s final energy demand by 2050. \nBut big questions hang over hydrogen. The first one is if it will be possible to ramp up industrial-scale production of green hydrogen and develop CCS technology to a point where blue hydrogen can be rolled out. And if so\, if there will be a market for clean hydrogen in these hard to abate sectors for what today is a much more expensive energy than the conventional alternatives. The next big issue is where it will be made and how\, and members states have diverging preferences ranging from nuclear reactors to dams to a mix of offshore wind production plus imports from sunny and windy places like North Africa. \nThat’s turning hydrogen in a crucial political\, economic and climate topic for this Commission\, which in July published its dedicated strategy on hydrogen. \n\nWhat’s the outlook for hydrogen to be a clean fuel for heavy transport\, shipping and aviation?\nHow are sectors like steel and cement preparing for a conversion to hydrogen and who are the pioneers in these industries? What are the prospects for hydrogen adoption by other sectors like cars?\nWhat needs to happen for industrial-scale production and demand of green hydrogen?\nWhat is the opportunity for the EU to gain a competitive edge by becoming an early mover in the development of clean hydrogen technology?\nIs there a danger that the EU will substitute its dependence on imported oil and gas for a future reliance on imported hydrogen?\nHow much can Next Generation EU contribute to delivering a clean hydrogen economy in Europe?\nHow long should the transitionary role of blue hydrogen last to achieve the targets?\n\nThe second event of our Energy Visions series gathers key European and national policymakers\, industry\, and NGOs for a frank debate on the role of hydrogen in decarbonizing Europe’s industry and transport\, and how the bloc can create a robust clean hydrogen economy.

SUMMARY:5th Global Summit of GADRI
DESCRIPTION:The GADRI 2021 conference aims at stock taking of progress in DRR research from its Members towards targets of the Sendai Science and Technology Roadmap. The programme will communicate academic science across scientific disciplines to policy makers and practitioners. It is an important aspect for academics to be aware how science can directly contribute to national and local disasters\, for example\, a dam break or an epidemic outbreak\, etc. Such situations prompt scientists’ interventions\, expertise\, and experience and to share them with emergency managers in crisis situations. \nThe biennial Global Summit Series was initiated by the Disaster Prevention Research Institute (DPRI)\, Kyoto University\, Uji Campus\, Kyoto Japan with the first Global Summit of Research Institutes for Disaster Risk Reduction session held in November 2011 during the same year a triple disaster – Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami devastated Japan in March 2011.

SUMMARY:Soil carbon sequestration: When does increased soil C storage yield net removal of greenhouse gases?
DESCRIPTION:Keen public interest in soil carbon sequestration will test the scientific community’s ability to deliver effective management practices and durable scientific concepts. The goal of this webinar series is to hear diverse perspectives on key technical questions that inform how to go about sequestering soil carbon in working lands. In Webinar 3 we will explore how practices that increase soil organic carbon impact emissions of nitrous oxide\, and ask whether storing more carbon is enough to reduce the net GHG impact of agriculture. We will hear case studies from France by Claire Chenu (INRAE) and the U.S. Midwest by Jane Johnson (USDA-ARS). This series is sponsored by the International Soil Carbon Network in partnership with AGU and the USDA Climate Hubs.

SUMMARY:CCS in the Circular Carbon Economy: Policy and Regulatory Proposals
DESCRIPTION:Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is essential to achieving net-zero ambitions and mitigating climate change. The total installed CCS capacity must increase 100-fold by 2050 to limit global warming to 2° Celsius above pre-industrial times\, according to the International Energy Agency Sustainable Development Scenario. \nJoin us for an interactive webinar on the 29th of July as Ian Havercroft\, Dominic Rassool\, Alex Zapantis and Dr. Julio Friedmann present a report on the policy and legal factors that impact the investability of CCS projects. Part of the Circular Carbon Economy: Keystone to Global Sustainability series with Columbia University’s SIPA Center on Global Energy Policy\, the report makes high level recommendations on how governments can facilitate greater private sector investment in CCS.
