#GHGs
Ignore the blah blah blah and remember this:

"Since atmospheric GHGs [which increased by +2.3% in 2024] drive global warming, [this is] ultimately the metric that matters for meeting the temperature goal of the Paris Agreement."

Unless these decline we are on a steady march to hell

As Ryan Mizzen explains in his analysis of James Hansen's study, the drop in shipping aerosols *unmasked* warming. 👇

This doesn’t mean pollution controls are wrong. What it really shows is that unless we rapidly reduce GHGs, the *real* warming comes through in full force.

The transport sector is the largest source of GHGs in #EU27 and total emissions are projected to be on 1990 levels in 2030 with aviation and shipping contribution increasing.

No wonder the auto industry and high-level politicians are worried about the sink collapse, because 'offsetting' failed.
"Despite efforts to reduce emissions from transport, such as increasing the deployment of EVs, emissions have not significantly decreased since 2005."

"International aviation and maritime emissions are projected to continue increasing."

Let's talk about it.

That is not how carbon capture works. It's also called enhanced oil recovery. Any carbon that is stored is used to extract every single drop of oil from reservoirs which in turn creates more GHGs. LNG is worse with the methane it creates. They aren't sucking any carbon from the air to just store.

1. There is no negotiating with physics

"We cannot defy the laws of physics. Science does not lie… Concentrations of heat-trapping GHGs are their highest in 800,000 years, thus committing our planet to a warmer and more dangerous future" says @wmo-global.bsky.social's head

2025 set to be second or third warmest year on record, continuing exceptionally high warming trend

...aircraft just pollute more. Joint International action has proved difficult to arrange. I'd suggest that concentrating on private jets, while satisfying, misses the point that they're only responsible for 2 to 4% of GHGs. Extend and reinforce Air Passenger Duty instead?

EU climate action takes a major step forward!

✅EU Member States agree on the 2040 target: -90% net GHGs

✅New EU NDC for #COP30: -66.25–72.5% by 2035 vs 1990

Europe stays the course toward climate neutrality by 2050 🎯

🌿 Peatlands cover just 2.84% of Earth’s land but store 25% of its soil carbon — twice as much as all forests combined!

When healthy, they trap carbon & regulate water. When drained, they release massive GHGs.

And reduce GHGs to keep us well below 2C? You said climate change is a crisis.

I hadn't thought of it that way, I was just thinking of the warming in the pipe from GHGs in the atmosphere.
So this statement "Global warming is proportional to cumulative CO2 emissions, which means that the planet will keep heating for as long as global emissions remain more than zero" is wrong?

What’s the most impactful personal step we can take to curb climate change?

Going vegan 🌱😎

Most greenhouse gas emissions originate in animal agriculture❗️⤵️

"we have to think about climate change as a national emergency. That means we're short on time. We need to focus narrowly on our mission, on the goal, which is decarbonization and mitigating the effects"

YT recommended this video to me and it's from a guy who would NEVER mention TX's rising GHGS

We (WRI Coolfood) have partnered with SIMAP, and now they include our emission factors for calculating food-related emissions! We also work with several universities who have committed to reduce food related emissions through our Pledge, a 25% reduction target by 2030 for food-related GHGs

💥 The reality:

Biofuels currently make up just 0.3% of jet fuel.

Most come from crops — not “waste.”

When made from palm oil or soy, they can emit more GHGs than fossil fuels.

The EPA plans to stop regulating greenhouse gases, the primary driver of climate change. Trump claims that the burden of reducing emissions is too onerous. However, businesses are urging the govt to continue regulating GHGs rather than risk prolonged legal battles. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/25/c...

Claiming that the harm to industries of cutting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is worse than a warming planet (!), Trump's EPA wants to repeal the “endangerment finding,” the conclusion that GHGs endanger public health and must be regulated. Carmakers, electric utilities, and the oil/gas industry...

Meh, the Palisades Folks are the ones putting all the GHGs into the atmosphere, so I feel like they got what was coming to them with a Warning. The Alta Dena area I worked in a lot and it is a really nice UMC but still working class area with a lost of History, #ClimateChaos

New research shows that wastewater treatment plants are emitting twice as much GHGs as previously estimated by the US EPA. www.eurekalert.org/news-release...

The US is about to lose its large-facility source GHG database (EPA's GHGRP) which the Trump administration is shutting down.

People tracking GHGs internationally think it's bad, but fundamentally they aren't that affected because the future action / change isn't happening in the US anyways.

Why should physicians, including radiologists, talk about climate change? ❓

💚 It affects our patients’ health. We can’t have healthy patients without a healthy planet.

🏥 Healthcare, and radiology in particular, is a significant contributor to GHGs.

Yup...our climate assembly at Uni of Exeter said the same... that is the global priority. Without that many billions of people are in real trouble in the coming decades. The top 1% cause half the world's GHGs. That seems like a good place to start. @greenparty.org.uk have got it bang on
October 22, 2025 at 4:59 PM
Another way to frame this is we just shouldn’t be burning things near people, where they are exposed to the waste gas and particulates, whether or not you care about the CO2 and other GHGs.
Here's something that's not talked about enough

The air pollution from burning fossil fuels kills an estimated 10 million people a year

1 in 6 deaths is caused by fossil fuels
