The path to 1.5 °C requires ratcheting of climate pledges
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 10 November 2022; doi:10.1038/s41558-022-01517-z
Increasing climate ambition through 2030 will be crucial to limiting global peak temperature changes this century. Countries need to ratchet their 2030 pledges made in Glasgow to reduce temperature overshoot and consequently reduce the risks of irreversible and adverse consequences to natural and human systems.

Farmers and Advocates Fly-in to DC to Call for Climate and Sustainability Action in the 2023 Farm Bill
With the 2023 Farm Bill reauthorization on the horizon, advocates and farmers from across the country gathered in Washington, DC last month to champion the federal programs important to them and their communities. NSAC hosted a cohort of farmers, ranchers, and food systems advocates for more than thirty meetings with Congressional leaders and senior USDA officials to encourage them to prioritize sustainable food and farm needs in the upcoming farm bill and in ongoing program implementation efforts.
Many of the “fly-in” participants made long trips away from their family and farms during a busy harvest season. Farmers and advocates shared their stories about how federal food and farm policies impact them, their communities, and people across the nation. Participants represented 10 different states: Arkansas, Georgia, Iowa, Maine, Minnesota, Nebraska, North …

Urban forests facing climate risks
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 19 September 2022; doi:10.1038/s41558-022-01481-8
More cities are including urban forests in their climate change adaptation plans. Now, research shows that more than two-thirds of tree species across cities worldwide are facing severe climate risks, undermining their roles in climate adaptation and other ecosystem services they provide.

Unravelling global patterns of irreversible climate change
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 06 September 2022; doi:10.1038/s41558-022-01456-9
Even if greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere are reduced to pre-industrial levels, the climate system might not return to its previous state. Quantification of the spatial patterns of climate hysteresis and reversibility reveals globally widespread irreversible changes in surface temperature and precipitation in response to anthropogenic CO2 emissions.
