Cutting Methane, Soot Not Enough to Tackle Warming

2014-11-04 22:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

Climate Central: If the race to warm the planet were a children's allegory, carbon dioxide would be considered the tortoise, while soot and methane would play the role of the hare. In reality, as in fairy tales, the tortoise is going to win. Recent focus on targeting methane, soot and other short-term pollutants to combat climate change is not going to keep global warming in check if CO2 is not also slashed to stop its long-term impact, a new study says. The research, published this week in the Proceedings...

Emissions should be the focus of climate efforts, rather than soot, say team in a Nature paper. Soot plumes belch from chimneys, stoves and forest fires, causing numerous health ailments and, it was thought, a contribution to climate change second only to carbon dioxide. But when recent...
