In climate models, if you simulate the world with sulfur emissions from shipping, and you simulate the world without these emissions, there is a sizable cooling effect from changes in the model clouds due to shipping. The calculated concentration of cloud droplets without emissions along the shipping route (yellow line).

In comparison, tobacco smoking shortens life expectancy by an average of 2.2 They also found that air pollution had a greater effect on shortening lives in older people, with the exception of deaths in children aged under five in low income countries, such as Africa and South Asia. million premature deaths a year in 2015.

Global and regional-mean temperature responses to identical aerosol emissions in different regions. However, aerosols have a much shorter lifespan in the atmosphere than the gases responsible for global warming, resulting in an atmospheric distribution that varies by region, especially in comparison to carbon dioxide.

BC emission map of China at 0.1° × 0.1° Major emission areas are marked. A new black carbon (BC) emissions inventory from China found BC emissions levels in 2007 of 1,957 Gg BC—higher than reported in earlier studies. for year 2007. Credit: ACS, Wang et al.

Climate response to non-CO 2 vehicle emissions. vehicle emissions under the baseline scenario (a) and the difference between the tight-standard and baseline scenarios (b). However, these standards will not reduce CO 2 emissions, which is required to mitigate long-term climate change, the team notes. Shindell et al.
