Focus on Food Would Help Solve Climate Change, Says Study
A paper released today by the journal Nature Food presents a new global food system approach to climate-change research that brings together agricultural production, supply chains and consumption.
What to Do When Cutting Emissions Alone is No Longer Enough
Four factors to consider in the race to solve the climate crisis, including how to scale up a tool called negative emissions and why the oceans can only help so much.
Methane Emitted via Human Fossil Fuel Use ‘Vastly Underestimated’
By measuring the carbon-14 isotope in air from more than 200 years ago, the researchers found that scientists have been vastly overestimating the amount of fossil methane emitted by natural sources, and have therefore been underestimating the amount of methane humans are emitting into the atmosphere via fossil fuels.
Verifying Forecasts for Major Stratospheric Sudden Warmings
The polar vortex usually encompasses the polar region in the winter stratosphere, but sometimes shifts markedly away from its normal position and distorts during stratospheric sudden warmings (SSWs).
