Global corporate tax competition challenges climate change mitigation

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 28 March 2024; doi:10.1038/s41558-024-01952-0Countries use corporate tax cuts to attract foreign investment, which reshapes patterns of global production. This research shows that such competition will lead to higher carbon emissions and shift them to developing countries, while a global minimum tax could help...

Designing water markets for climate change adaptation

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 28 March 2024; doi:10.1038/s41558-024-01964-wGlobal climate change will continue to reconfigure water resources and lead to more extreme events. Water markets may provide a low-cost adaptation tool. This Perspective discusses the opportunities and challenges for surface and groundwater markets to manage water...

Global corporate tax competition leads to unintended yet non-negligible climate impacts

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 28 March 2024; doi:10.1038/s41558-024-01962-yThe worldwide trend of decreasing corporate tax in recent years has contributed to an increase in global carbon emissions, but implementing a global minimum tax rate of 15% could partially mitigate this impact. Policymakers should coordinate corporate tax policies...

The foraging behaviour of consumers leads to more extinctions when temperature increases

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 22 March 2024; doi:10.1038/s41558-024-01969-5When the temperature increases, so do the energetic requirements of species. We find that the energetic stress caused by increases in temperature pushes fish species to consume the first prey they encounter to fulfil their immediate needs, rather than focusing on more...

Enhanced CO<sub>2</sub> uptake of the coastal ocean is dominated by biological carbon fixation

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 22 March 2024; doi:10.1038/s41558-024-01956-wThe coastal ocean is a dynamic environment, and CO2 uptake is increasing faster than in the open ocean. Incorporating coastal processes into a global model shows that biological responses to climate-induced circulation changes and riverine nutrient inputs are key to...

Coastal sink outpaces open ocean

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 22 March 2024; doi:10.1038/s41558-024-01968-6The ocean stores about 30% of the carbon emitted by human activities, regulating atmospheric CO2 levels and the Earth’s climate. Research suggests that this uptake of CO2 has strengthened much faster in coastal ocean waters than in the open ocean due to enhanced biological...
