This was shown by Halldór Björnsson of the Icelandic weather service and presented at the Arctic Circle conference 2016. I discussed this here in 2016 and also in my 2018 RealClimate article “ If you doubt that the AMOC has weakened, read this ”, together with possible other alternative explanations of the ‘cold blob’.

degrees Celsius warmer than in the 1850-1900 pre-industrial period, when humans began burning fossil fuels on an industrial scale, pumping carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. During the year as a whole the record was not just broken, but broken by a great amount as 2023 was 0.17C hotter than 2016 – the previous hottest year.

According to the respected International Energy Agency’s new report, global greenhouse gases emissions from energy remained flat in 2016 while the global economy grew by 3.1 The biggest drop came from the United States, where carbon dioxide emissions fell 3%, or 160 million tonnes, while the economy grew by 1.6%.

In 2016, the world added 138.5 The IEA estimates that $231 billion were invested globally in efficiency solutions in 2016, a nine percent increase over the previous year. The intense wildfires that have been seen in Southern Europe and the Western part of North America are emitting a lot of carbon dioxide.

Their legal case pointed out including forest biomass as a carbon neutral renewable energy source is detrimental for the environment. The British think-tank Sandbag claimed the deforestation induced by wood’s high demand will cancel out the benefit of not burning coal, thus boosting climate change rather than mitigating it.

Globally, the rate of reforestation is catching up to a slowing rate of deforestation. [11] 30] Roughly 40 percent of the planet has seen “greening”—more forest and other biomass growth—between 1981 and 2016. 33] Scientists find that plants grow faster as a result of higher carbon dioxide concentrations.

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, with a global warming potential of approximately 28 times greater than carbon dioxide over a 100-year time horizon (IPCC, 2021). Deforestation not only threatens biodiversity and disrupts ecosystems but can also increase carbon losses and reduce the capacity for carbon sequestration (Macedo et al.,
