Declining precipitation frequency may drive earlier leaf senescence by intensifying drought stress and enhancing drought acclimation

Precipitation impacts leaf senescence. Here, the authors use carbon flux and satellite data to demonstrate that reduced precipitation frequency is associated with a faster drought response in trees and show that Earth system models don’t capture the impact of reduced precipitation.

Intranational synergies and trade-offs reveal common and differentiated priorities of sustainable development goals in China

The paper reveals areas of common and differentiated SDG priority at the national and subnational levels in China considering synergy and trade-off. The findings suggest that provincial governments should formulate more targeted policy aligning with national priority to achieve SDGs.

Adjusting agricultural emissions for trade matters for climate change mitigation

Understanding emissions flow with trade matters for climate action. Trade-adjusted emission accounting would close the carbon loophole generated by trade for more effective climate action targeted at producers, consumers, and intermediary traders

Urban rooftops for food and energy in China

This study proposes that the optimal allocation of roof area for rooftop agriculture and photovoltaics is 61% of the flat rooftop area to the former and the rest for the latter. However, maintaining this productivity requires considerable water use and materials.

Three foci at the science-policy interface for systemic Sustainable Development Goal acceleration

The integrated and indivisible nature of the SDGs is facing implementation challenges due to the silo approaches. We present the three interconnected foci (SDG interactions, modeling, and tools) at the science-policy interface to address these challenges. Accounting for them will support accelerated SDG progress, operationalizing the integration and indivisibility principles.

Saving food mitigates climate change

Life cycle assessment reveals that the emissions from the treatment and disposal of lost and wasted food account for around half of greenhouse gas emissions from food systems. Therefore, saving food is essential to reduce food systems’ environmental impacts.

Food transport emissions matter

Trade enables food access and is therefore key to achieving global food security. However, greenhouse gas emissions associated with food transport are many times higher than what was indicated by previous estimates.

Antagonists to meeting the 2030 Agenda

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) can influence each other positively or negatively. Climate change, inequalities and irresponsible consumption and production currently stand in the way of meeting the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Scientific evidence on the political impact of the Sustainable Development Goals

The Sustainable Development Goals were launched as a worldwide governance framework, but little is known about their actual political impacts. This study shows evidence that the Sustainable Development Goals have had largely a discursive influence and only limited transformative political impact.
