Popular wisdom is often wrong. Consider, for example, how it views organic agriculture, which has grown to a $48 billion a year industry in the U.S. Organic products are sold
A team of researchers from Oxford University, UK, put forward a series of possible ideas and suggestions to reach the final 25% in terms of greenhouse emissions and achieve Net-Zero.
Even if the world stopped burning all fossil fuels today, that would not be enough to keep global temperatures below a 1.5° to 2°C increase above preindustrial levels. Fossil fuel
For the first time, scientists have quantified the contribution of so-called ozone-depleting substances, like chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), to extreme Arctic warming. The important, yet oft-forgotten, group of greenhouse gases were responsible
A new plan unveiled on 21 August by the Trump administration ― the so-called Clean and Affordable Energy plan ― is set to dismantle Barack Obama’s signature Clean Power Plan, which was
The detrimental effects of plastic on the environment are widely recognised, but a new study published on August 1 in PLoS ONE, a peer-reviewed scientific journal, now shows plastics may
The global tourism industry has a larger carbon footprint than scientists previously thought. According to new research, tourism contributes 8% of the world’s annual greenhouse gas emissions. Researchers warned that
How to Reverse Global Warming: We Ask the New Expert – and the Answer Isn’t What You Think
In previous articles (for example, (1) and (2)), we have explained the basic elements of global warming which make it apparent that near-term reductions in temperature can plausibly come from
Many species of fish we commonly eat have a crucial role in keeping the seabed, according to a study published in Marine Environmental Research. The authors suggest that affecting these
