Concentrations of HFC-23, one of the world's most potent greenhouse gases, remained elevated off China's east coast after China was supposed to cease emitting the gas under an international agreement. insideclimatenews.org/news/1811202... My latest with @paldhous.bsky.social, @cooljerk.bsky.social

We’ve run the numbers; check out the largest greenhouse gas emitters in the U.S. in 2022 and what they are doing, or not doing, to reduce emissions. insideclimatenews.org/news/2910202...
