Noting the references in scientific and policy literature to the need for fast-action mitigation to help avoid DAI and abrupt climate changes, the authors define “fast-action” to include regulatory measures that can begin within 2–3 years, be substantially implemented in 5–10 years, and produce a climate response within decades.

Up there, 10 to 50 kilometers above the Earth’s surface, ozone molecules absorb the sun’s ultraviolet light, protecting life far below. The proposal calls for what’s known as “solar geoengineering”: cooling the planet by deflecting sunlight that would otherwise strike the planet. Concentrations of greenhouse gases are at.

Approximately 70% of the reductions needed to meet the ozone standard in the South Coast in 2031 would come from existing or proposed regulatory actions. Reducing these pollutants can have a more immediate beneficial impact on climate change, and reduces harmful toxins, such as cancer-causing particulates, in California communities.

Together, the Greenhouse Gas Bulletin and Emissions Gap Report will provide a base for decision-making at the UN climate change negotiations, which will be held from 7-17 November in Bonn, Germany. This system builds on the long-term experience of WMO in greenhouse gas instrumental measurements and atmospheric modelling.

Development of sustainable communities strategies can also provide an opportunity for associated criteria pollutant emission reductions that will be needed to attain air quality standards for ozone and particulate matter as well as reduce near-roadway exposures.

power from renewable sources—wind, solar, geothermal, biomass or landfill gas, hydropower, and marine and hydrokinetic—for retail electricity suppliers beginning at 6% in 2012 and gradually rising to 25% in 2025 and continuing at that level through 2039. Title II, Energy Efficiency , has seven subsections: Building Energy Efficiency.

As we confront the enormous challenge of climate change, we should take inspiration from even the most unlikely sources. Take, for example, the tens of thousands of fossil-fueled ships that chug across the ocean, spewing plumes of pollutants that contribute to acid rain, ozone depletion, respiratory ailments, and global warming.
