Carbon credits cut clean-cookstove costs across Africa despite growing scrutiny — 5dAfrica is pursuing new, coordinated financing architectures to accelerate its food systems and CAADP implementation while leveraging public, private, and concessional funding to attract private investment. Separately, carbon credit financing is expanding access to clean cooking across the continent, lowering upfront costs and supported by billions in commitments and dozens of policies to scale adoption for nearly 1 billion people lacking clean cooking options.

Dana Whitfield The scrutiny on carbon markets is fair but let's not throw out a tool that's actually lowering real costs for real families.

WMO warns wildfire smoke may be undercounting tens of thousands of deaths — 5dGlobal health and ecosystems are at risk as the WMO warns that escalating wildfires and heatwaves are eroding progress in air quality, calling for coordinated climate and air-pollution policies and enhanced monitoring of PM2.5, ground-level ozone, black carbon, and microplastics. The bulletin also highlights that wildfire-derived PM2.5 can be more toxic and may lead to underestimations of mortality, with hotspots and long-term averages showing troubling trends in places like northwestern Spain, northern Canada, and parts of Africa.

Tom Gallagher My asthma got way worse during that smoky week last summer and I bet none of that shows up in official death counts anywhere.

Kansas farmers experiment with perennial grains to fight worsening drought — Sep 4, 2026In Kansas, drought-stricken farms are turning to Kernza, a perennial grain that can be planted less frequently and has deep root systems to improve drought resilience and reduce soil erosion, as illustrated by Bryce Black’s experience near Beloit. While researchers push perennial grains to cut inputs and carbon costs, adoption remains slow due to lower yields, harvesting challenges, and a still-developing market.

Sam Okafor Kernza sounds promising but until the yields catch up, most farmers I know can't afford to gamble on it.

Global Permafrost Thaw Accelerates, Study FindsEnvironment — Aug 26, 2026Global long-term monitoring shows permafrost is thawing worldwide, with the active layer thickening at 55% of Arctic sites, 38% of Antarctic sites, and over 90% of European and high-elevation Asian sites, signaling widespread degradation and potential massive carbon release. The thaw threatens infrastructure from roads to pipelines and buildings, as carbon dioxide and methane escape from deeper layers, a pattern documented across 156 sites in the first global assessment led by GWU researchers over more than two decades.

UN warns world likely to overshoot 1.5°C, sees possible path back — Sep 2, 2026A group of UN-led assessments warn that the 1.5°C limit is increasingly likely to be breached in coming years, but still callable back down through a sustained overshoot-and-reduction pathway that combines rapid emission cuts with large-scale carbon removal. The consensus remains that while overshoot is not inevitable catastrophe, it will entail decades of heightened climate risks and requires urgent, bolder action across mitigation, adaptation, and governance to keep temperatures from rising further.

Tom Gallagher Betting on carbon removal tech that doesn't exist at scale yet feels like a plan built on hope, not engineering.
