Climate tipping points are points of no return, beyond which the
Earth's systems would reorganize beyond the capacity of
socioeconomic and ecological systems to adapt, warns the OECD's Jo
Tyndall, in a new C2GTalk. Policymakers need to do
more to address these risks now, including through support for
carbon dioxide removal technologies, accounting for both
opportunities and challenges. While solar radiation modification is
not currently feasible, more research is needed.
Jo Tyndall is director of the Environment Directorate at the
Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) where
she oversees the implementation of the Directorate’s program of
work, covering a broad range of environmental issues, including:
green growth, climate change, biodiversity, quality of ecosystems,
eco-innovation, circular economy, and resource productivity.
