Land use change is normally just discussed in terms of emissions when talking about climate change, but there is a great deal more involved.

Beyond the Canopy: The Multi-Scale Climate Impacts of Land Transformation
When we change the vegetation across a landscape, we create a cascade of effects with both short term and long terms implications that extend from the very local to the global scale.

The battle over a global energy transition is on between petro-states and electro-states – here’s what to watch for in 2026
While wind and solar energy led in investments globally, liquefied natural gas is also booming. A former climate envoy for Germany explains what’s coming and the countries to watch.

Jared Kushner has somehow found a place at Coalition of the Willing press conference with Scholz, Zelensky, Macron, Starmer and Witkoff.
Kushner has no official position in the US government.

Now the preprint got published that on a global mean aerosols are not declining which makes it mainly a cloud feedback that drives the growing energy imbalance of Earth and acceleration of warming
This makes it two studies with the same finding in terms of global aerosol trends

Negligible contribution from aerosols to recent trends in Earth’s energy imbalance
Contrasting aerosol trends between hemispheres cancel out, resulting in minimal impact on Earth’s energy imbalance.
