Putting the CORE Framework Into Practice
The CORE framework by Carbon180 focuses on responsible carbon removal by centering communities, ecosystems, and real climate outcomes, with principles and practices for design, deployment, and governance emphasizing transparency and community agency. Implementation involves decisions about site selection, project design, funding, monitoring, and governance, with different actors playing various roles. The framework is supported by a Resource Hub and hypothetical scenarios to guide implementation and bridge the gap between principles and reality, crucial for shaping the field for the future with institutions translating principles into infrastructure. The CORE principles aim to influence how carbon removal interventions are designed, governed, and evaluated, with considerations such as community participation, early-stage intervention design, and funding, procurement, and oversight, evolving alongside real-world experience and updated over time for refined implementation of responsible carbon removal.

Revealed: Scientists tell Colombia fossil-fuel transition summit to ‘halt new expansion’
Around 50 nations will gather in Santa Marta, Colombia to discuss transitioning away from fossil fuels, following the failure to agree on a roadmap at COP30. A preliminary scientific report, created by a group of 24 scientists, offers recommendations such as halting new fossil fuel expansion and phasing out subsidies. The report, with "action insights" and prescriptive recommendations, will be further refined before being made public at the end of April. The goal is to provide actionable recommendations for countries to transition away from fossil fuels, with the aim of encouraging immediate climate action and informing a global roadmap being developed by the Brazilian COP30 presidency.

New Report: Charting the Path Forward for Climate Justice Communications
The report emphasizes the need for diverse and culturally resonant messaging to mobilize Americans to take action on climate change, connecting it to affordability, health, jobs, and community safety. It suggests leveraging community storytellers and untapped platforms like Spanish-language media, gaming platforms, podcasts, influencers, and artists to reach a wider audience. Using hope as a strategic tool, grounded in realistic pathways for progress, is also highlighted. The path forward for climate communications involves coordinated flexibility, investing in community storytellers, and building long-term cultural infrastructure.

New PACJA Strategic Plan (2026-2030) in Place: What Does It Include? – PACJA – Panafrican Climate Justice Alliance
The Pan African Climate Justice Alliance (PACJA) and its partners recently gathered in Tanzania to validate the new Strategic Plan for 2026-2030, focusing on climate security in regions like the Sahel and the Horn of Africa, as well as mineral resources in Southern and Central Africa. The plan aims to strengthen the connection between policy, finance, and community livelihoods, empowering local communities in the climate dialogue. Key points include expanding youth initiatives, establishing global partnerships, enhancing NDC tracking, and advocating for grant-based support in climate finance. Emphasizing the importance of demanding transparency and justice in climate activities, the plan highlights the need for increased accountability to ensure effective climate solutions, with PACJA serving as a resource for further information on climate justice initiatives.

Southern Africa’s Carbon Market Formalises an Alliance
African countries are facing challenges in accessing climate finance due to various factors, including US withdrawal from climate bodies and treaties, limited progress on financial reforms, and development aid cuts. To address these issues, there is a call for African countries to mobilize more domestic resources, explore new financial mechanisms like carbon finance, and promote local industrialization. The Southern Africa Alliance on Carbon Markets and Climate Finance, launched in 2026, aims to support the region's investment profile, standardize carbon market systems, and improve the value of carbon credits through capacity building, adequate pricing, and convertibility. By promoting market integrity and harmonization, the Alliance seeks to boost investor confidence, ensure compliance with international regulations, and support the use of high integrity credits in international markets, including the EU's carbon border mechanism.

Environmental News Network – New AI Approach Reveals Ocean Currents in Unprecedented Detail
Scientists have developed a new method called GOFLOW to measure ocean surface currents using deep learning on thermal images from weather satellites. This approach allows for detailed measurements over large areas without the need for new hardware. The study, led by researchers from UC San Diego and UCLA, was published in Nature Geoscience and supported by grants from various organizations. Understanding ocean currents is crucial for climate, weather patterns, carbon transport, and search-and-rescue operations. Traditional methods of measuring currents have been limited, but this new technique offers a major advancement in ocean observation.

NASA satellite shows exactly where air pollution begins
NASA's PACE satellite, with its ability to detect nitrogen dioxide pollution at a fine scale, is revolutionizing the identification and management of emissions from individual sources like factories and highways. By providing sharper pixels and more accurate readings through favorable viewing conditions and machine learning, the satellite's maps show distinct plumes of nitrogen dioxide in regions like Los Angeles. This new level of detail, along with validation tests showing PACE's precision, makes it a valuable tool for monitoring air quality near coasts and cities. Combined with NASA's TEMPO mission, the PACE mission can track pollution patterns and movements to provide more accurate data for same-day decision-making during rush-hour and industrial pollution events. As validation expands and algorithms improve, PACE has the potential to become even more useful for daily health, planning, and emissions work.

Just Transition in net zero strategies: Beyond risk, towards value creation
Integrating just transition principles into net zero strategies is crucial for enhancing portfolio resilience and reducing risk, as highlighted by the IIGCC's guidance. By treating just transition as both a risk factor and a value-creation driver, investors can better deliver their net zero goals with support from communities and stakeholders. The guidance provides practical levers and tools for integrating just transition considerations into investment strategies, helping investors manage risks, protect returns, and unlock decarbonization pathways. Three recommended action areas for investors include setting internal direction, shifting asset alignment, and influencing the external environment to contribute to resilient portfolios and credible net zero pathways. Engagement with various stakeholders is essential for shaping national transition strategies and removing barriers to scaling socially inclusive climate investments.
