    There is growing focus on stringent climate policy targets, such as net zero emissions by 2050 and climate stabilization at 1.5C or 2C. With that focus comes a long, and growing, list of questions. Some of these include: What does net zero emissions really mean? What’s the role of negative emissions technologies such as BECCS (bioenergy with carbon capture and storage)? What do energy transitions consistent with such targets look like?  How can we account for key uncertainties? This talk will cover research designed to address these questions. A main focus will be on work employing a multi-sector coupled human-natural system model that captures uncertainties related to policy design and socioeconomic development to explore energy transitions and related regional and sectoral responses such as emissions, sectoral output, and consumption.
