Approved work: Carbon offsetting and carbon payback
This POSTnote will summarise the challenges that have emerged around setting standards for international offsetting and what monitoring is needed to ensure effective mitigation.

This POSTbrief sets out the causes, likely future levels and implications of sea level rise.
Projecting Future Sea Level Rise (533 KB , PDF)
This POSTbrief provides further information on current projections of future sea level rise. It introduces sea level rise projections and discusses the various future emissions scenarios used in the projections, the different modelling methods employed, as well as the likelihood ranges and uncertainties associated with them. It also provides an overview of the current sea level rise projections arising from different modelling techniques and emission scenarios and discusses high-end sea level rise scenarios.
This POSTbrief accompanies POSTnote 555 Rising Sea Levels.
