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...

Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Soars to 424PPM, Marking Biggest Yearly Jump Ever
The WMO reports Earth’s atmospheric CO₂ reached 422.8 ppm in 2024 — the biggest annual rise ever recorded. Driven by fossil-fuel emissions, wildfires, and weakening carbon sinks, the surge intensifies global warming. Scientists warn that delayed emission cuts could entrench irreversible changes in weather, ecosystems, and sea levels.

China Unveils New Climate Goals, Plans 7-10% Emissions Cut by 2035
China has for the first time made specific emission cut pledges, though its goal of reducing planet-warming greenhouse gases just seven to 10 percent by 2035 is seen as far too modest.
