How net zero plans to cut pollution have accelerated global warming
In 2020, strict rules were put in place to slash cargo-ship emissions. Five years on, it appears to have been less than ...
Weather Bee | How long before long-term warming breaches 1.5°C threshold?
The inevitable breach of the 1.5°C warming threshold is accelerated by decreased air pollution, increasing Earth's energy ...
Record January heat suggests La Niña may be losing its ability to keep global warming in check
January 2025 was the hottest on record—a whole 1.7°C above pre-industrial levels. If many climate-watchers expected the world ...

Faster global warming linked to fewer aerosols in ship pollution
Scientists link global warming to lower sulfur pollution from ships. Fewer ship aerosols mean less sunlight reflection, allowing heat to stay.
Clean air policies may have ‘unfortunate consequences’ for methane emissions
A new study is the latest to suggest that reductions in atmospheric sulphur may be driving global warming at a rate faster than previously anticipated.

Could manmade aerosols prevent global warming?
Manmade aerosols have long been considered a prime factor in global warming, but now they are reducing, worldwide ...
Reducing air pollution could increase methane emissions from wetlands – here’s what needs to be done
Improved computer models shed light on how reducing sulphur emissions will inadvertently release methane from wetlands.

Models show intensifying wildfires in a warming world due to changes in vegetation and humidity; only a minor role for lightning
Climate scientists present a realistic supercomputer simulation that resolves the complex interactions between fire, vegetation, smoke and the atmosphere. The authors find that increasing greenhouse ...
