Research with climate models in recent years shows that when carbondioxide emissions stop, the rise in atmospheric temperatures will likely also stop. The oceans absorb much of the carbondioxide lingering in the atmosphere, which contributes to ocean acidification. 2C above the preindustrial average.
Through greenwashing ads, disinformation campaigns, attacks on scientists, and production of fake scientific evidence, the industry has engaged the playbook of deception to undermine climate action. But rising temperatures aren’t the only factor when we are thinking about climate impacts. What is standing in the way?
Last month, 44 climatescientists from 15 countries wrote an open letter to the Nordic Council of Ministers highlighting the risk of a potential collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), a critical ocean current system in the Atlantic Ocean. What are climatescientists demanding? degrees Celsius.
Fossil fuels are the root cause of climate change, of long-standing environmental injustices, and are also frequently connected to geopolitical strife and violent conflicts. According to the IPCC, global emissions must be cut in half by 2030 to meet the goals of the ParisAgreement, and IEA research shows it can be done.
Here, we define the Ambition Gap as the difference between the emissions reductions expected from a government’s planned policies and pledges, and those required to meet the long-term temperature goals of the ParisAgreement, in light of best available science. C temperature target within reach.
It turns out, for example, that climate-change researchers fly more frequently than scientists in other fields. Change 65 102184 ), climatescientists jet off two to three times a year on average, whereas other researchers get on planes just twice during that time. But other scientists also fly a lot. 8 2100707.
Court Dismissed Counterclaims in ClimateScientist’s Defamation Lawsuit. Superior Court dismissed counterclaims brought by an individual writer against the climatescientist Michael Mann in Mann’s defamation lawsuit against National Review, the Competitive Enterprise Institute, and two individuals. Bernhardt , No.
DOE estimated that the standards would reduce carbondioxide emissions by 99 million metric tons and save consumers and businesses $8.4 Arizona Court Ordered Production of ClimateScientists’ Emails Under Arizona’s Public Records Law. billion over a 30-year period. California Department of Food & Agriculture , No.
In addition, Coal Industry Petitioners and another set of petitioners with members that included companies in the petroleum, trucking, forest products, and other industries, as well as individuals and nonprofit organizations, filed briefs arguing that EPA could not regulate carbondioxide emissions from existing power plants under Section 111.
Court Said ClimateScientist Provided Sufficient Evidence of Actual Malice for Blog Authors but Not for Publisher. Spain approved the National Energy and Climate Plan 2021-2030 in March 2021. Instead, they sought an order that the Plan must be more ambitions in order to be aligned with the objectives of the ParisAgreement.
Despite that scrap, the takeaway remains constant — there is no hope of stopping global warming at the ParisAgreement limits of 1.5 degree limit of the ParisAgreement is a pipe dream unless emissions peak in the coming three years and fall by almost half from 2019 levels by 2030, the scientists said.
