In 2020, strict rules were put in place to slash cargo-ship emissions. Five years on, it appears to have been less than ...

January 2025 was the hottest on record—a whole 1.7°C above pre-industrial levels. If many climate-watchers expected the world ...

The inevitable breach of the 1.5°C warming threshold is accelerated by decreased air pollution, increasing Earth's energy ...

Reductions in air pollution have helped warm the planet by cutting down on reflective particles in the atmosphere – but researchers still disagree on the size of this effect ...

Alas, most things mean something for global warming.

A new study is the latest to suggest that reductions in atmospheric sulphur may be driving global warming at a rate faster than previously anticipated.

Scientists link global warming to lower sulfur pollution from ships. Fewer ship aerosols mean less sunlight reflection, allowing heat to stay.

Climate scientists present a realistic supercomputer simulation that resolves the complex interactions between fire, vegetation, smoke and the atmosphere. The authors find that increasing greenhouse ...

Cleaner air's impact requires a steeper reduction in human-emitted methane to meet global targets. A new study reveals that ...

Manmade aerosols have long been considered a prime factor in global warming, but now they are reducing, worldwide ...
