Clean Air Global Warming

Two new studies, both released Monday in the journal Nature Geoscience, address the powerful influence of aerosols - fine particles or drops of liquid often released by industrial activity - on the climate, and suggest that as nations around the world work to reduce this type of air pollution, we will begin to see more rapid warming than expected. ...

Governments may have to extract vast amounts of greenhouse gases from the air by 2100 to achieve a target for limiting global warming, backed by trillion-dollar shifts towards clean energy, a draft UN report showed on Wednesday.
