Scientists Warn Southern Ocean Could ‘Burp’ Stored Heat, Delaying Global Cooling for 100 Years
New modelling suggests the Southern Ocean could one day release the vast heat it has stored from greenhouse gas pollution. If CO₂ levels were pushed to net-negative, deep convection may trigger a sudden “thermal burp” that warms the planet for decades. Though idealised, the study shows how Antarctica’s surrounding seas could shape long-term...

India's Power-Sector CO2 Emissions Drop Again In Over 4 Decades: Report
India's carbon dioxide emissions from its power sector declined by 1% year-on-year in the first half of 2025 on strong clean energy additions and lower power demand, data from a research report showed, marking only the second drop in nearly 50 years.

Global Fossil CO2 Emissions Hit Record High in 2024: Here's What You Need to Know
Global CO2 emissions from fossil fuels reached a record high in 2024 at 37.4 billion tonnes, up 0.8% from 2023, according to the Global Carbon Project. Despite progress in renewables and climate efforts, fossil fuel use has not yet peaked, raising concerns about reaching global warming limits. With 41.6 billion tonnes of CO2 projected overall, scie...

Volcanoes "Hidden Source" Of Carbon-Dioxide In Past Climate Change: Study
Massive fields of magma underneath ancient volcanoes spewed out carbon dioxide long after eruptions on the surface had ended, potentially explaining why past global warming episodes lasted longer than expected, a study said Wednesday.

Replacing Red Meat With Fake Beef Could Save Forests, Slash CO2 By 80%
Gradually replacing 20 percent of global beef and lamb consumption with meat-textured proteins grown in stainless steel vats could cut agriculture-related CO2 emissions and deforestation in half by 2050, researchers reported Wednesday.

2021 Global CO2 Emissions Near Record Levels: Report
Global CO2 emissions caused mainly by burning fossil fuels are set to rebound in 2021 to pre-Covid levels, with China's share increasing to nearly a third of the total, according to an assessment published Thursday.

Climate Change: Why Carbon Dioxide Needs To Be Extracted From Thin Air
The burning question going into the Glasgow climate summit is whether major economies can, by 2050, reduce emissions enough to deliver a carbon-neutral world in which humanity no longer adds planet-warming gases to the atmosphere.

CO2 Emission Cuts Must Increase Tenfold To Fight Climate Emergency: Study
Sixty-four countries reduced their fossil carbon-dioxide emissions during the period between 2016 and 2019, but the rate of global reduction needs to increase tenfold to meet the Paris Agreement goals to fight climate change, according to a study.

Jet Fuel From CO2? Breakthrough Could Make Air Travel Carbon Neutral
The team of researchers have discovered a way to use low-cost iron catalysts to convert CO2 in the atmosphere into synthetic fuel for airplanes. The conversion reaction also produces other by-products which are important raw materials for the petrochemical industry and are presently also only obtained from fossil crude oil.
