Why the food system is the next frontier in climate action
Virtually all paths to a net-zero-emissions food system rely on consumers in high-income countries shifting to a more plant-forward diet. Energy Innovation's Daniel J. O'Brien and AGCI's Devan Crane explore emerging research on how food producers and consumers, as well as policymakers, can tackle food system emissions in this piece for Yale Climate Connections.
Reducing food system emissions, one bite at a time
Emerging research is beginning to shed light on actions that consumers and producers alike can take to reduce food system impacts on the climate. Emissions are generated at every stage of the food system, from the production on farm to the food you scrape off your plate.
Technological learning and policy together can advance clean energy
In this Yale Climate Connections article, AGCI's James Arnott and Energy Innovation Policy & Technology LLC®'s Michelle Solomon explain how adoption of new climate technologies involves "learning curves," which policymakers must account for to accurately estimate the declining future cost of clean energy.
“Learning” frontiers in the energy transition
How quickly we reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions critically depends on how fast we learn in the process. New research uses learning curves to explain staggering declines in costs of key climate technologies like solar photovoltaics and batteries, grounding hopes that we can get where we need to go—as long as we don’t delay getting started.
Distilling the key factors that drive social acceptance of ocean renewable energy
Many US coastal states are looking to the prospect of ocean renewable energy (ORE), particularly offshore wind, to help meet ambitious emissions reduction goals. Social science offers insight into who supports or opposes ORE and why, and suggests actions that could help promote a more just transition to ORE.
Solar and crop production research shows ‘multi-solving’ climate benefits
In this Yale Climate Connections article, AGCI's Martín Bonzi and Energy Innovation Policy & Technology LLC®'s Sarah Spengeman discuss how agrivoltaics researchers are finding multiple benefits from pairing solar power and crops production, which can increase citizen engagement and support for solar development.
How “agrivoltaics” can provide more benefits than agriculture and solar photovoltaics separately
Recent research evaluates how agrivoltaics -- co-locating solar electricity generation and agricultural production -- may achieve sustainable energy and food goals while possibly reducing local opposition to solar energy deployment.
