If people everywhere stopped burning fossil fuels tomorrow, stored heat would still continue to warm the atmosphere. The radiators are, in fact, cooling down, but their stored heat is still warming the air in the room. Historically, the first climate models represented only the atmosphere and were greatly simplified.

For example, Antarctica acts to cool our planet by reflecting solar radiation back to space by virtue of the brightness of its snow surface. Antarctica is such a place – remote from society yet influentially connected to the world’s environment that it relies on for survival. The world’s largest ever heatwave (38.5C

Satellites, for example, are used in meteorology to track weather systems and to monitor atmospheric fronts to predict what the weather will do next. Known as ENSO, they are opposite effects of the same process and are defined as an oscillation (a variation in magnitude) between the temperature of the atmosphere and the ocean.

UNDO ’s focus on enhanced rock weathering developed from the realization that conventional strategies, like mass tree planting, could not alone counter the massive amounts of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Basalt is formed by cooling lava, so wherever you have volcanic activity, you find basalt. It is also common.

SG would cool the Earth, temporarily and imperfectly offsetting some of the climate effects of elevated greenhouse gases, by reflecting a bit (around 0.5% The way to do this that now looks most promising would be to spray a fine mist of reflective aerosols in the upper atmosphere. to 1%) of incoming sunlight.

In 1970 in the Boston Globe newspaper, there was a scientist from the atmospheric research in Boulder, Colorado predicted that an ice age would be upon us by the 21st century. He also predicted that in the electric generation demands for cooling water will boil dry the entire flow of rivers and streams in the continental United States.
