Boston University study says renewables more cost effective than direct air capture at reducing carbon
The new analysis also incorporated both climate and local health impacts, and underscored a reality that conventional carbon accounting misses.
Studies and Modelling
Scientists explain why solar research should stop leading with climate
Emphasizing economic competitiveness, resilience, and energy independence, rather than climate arguments alone, may better engage funders and policymakers.
