Retirer le CO2 de l’atmosphère sauvera-t-il le climat?
Le Monde • 2023-03-19Fossil Fuels
Le Monde and ARIA investigated Occidental Petroleum’s (Oxy) climate pledge and its plans to develop direct air capture (DAC) and generate offsets to help other companies like Airbus to meet their net-zero targets. The story raises questions over the use of DAC to reach net-zero targets without phasing out fossil-fuels. ARIA submitted FOIs and conducted data and documentary analysis to aid the investigation.
MEPs hold ethically slippery side jobs — but they’re perfectly legal
Politico • 2023-03-08Industry Influence
ARIA provided documentary evidence on MEPs’ second jobs and how they could raise risks of conflicts of interest and impact their legislative decision-making. The story fed into debates around reforming parliamentary transparency and integrity rules after the Qatargate scandal.
U.S. Universities Aren’t Getting Enough Funding to Tackle Agriculture’s Climate Impact
Time • 2023-01-31Livestock
ARIA analysed almost 22,000 research grants given to Land Grant Universities in the US and found only about 2% were for climate-related research. Corporate grants were even less climate-focused, with only 1% going towards climate related research. This is despite both the US government and agricultural lobby groups promoting technological progress as central to their plans for the sector to tackle climate change.
