Xinhua: U.S. scientists said on Sunday that it's possible to greatly slow down sea level rise this century, by cutting emissions of so-called short-lived pollutants that cycle comparatively quickly through the atmosphere. The study, published in the journal Nature Climate Change, found that a sharp reduction in four pollutants beginning in 2015, namely, methane, tropospheric ozone, hydrofluorocarbons, and black carbon, could offset warming temperatures by up to 50 percent by 2050, and reduce sea level...

Cutting Short-lived Pollutants Can Slow Sea Level Rise

Climate Central: A new study finds that it is possible to greatly slow the rate of sea level rise, which is one of the biggest threats global warming poses, by cutting so-called "short-lived climate pollutants,' which warm the climate on timescales of a few weeks to a decade, in combination with reductions in long-lived greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2). The study, published in the journal Nature Climate Change, found that reducing emissions of these short-lived climate pollutants, including soot and...
