Countries export much of the harm created by their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions because the Earth's atmosphere intermixes globally. Yet, the extent to which this leads to inequity between GHG emitters and those impacted by the resulting climate change depends on the distribution of climate ...
Growing consumption is both necessary to end extreme poverty1and one of the main drivers of greenhouse gas emissions2, creating a potential tension between alleviating poverty and limiting global warming. Most poverty reduction has historically occurred because of economic growth3,4,5,6, which means ...

As world leaders and corporate representatives have returned from COP27 in Sharm el-Sheikh, a major challenge remains to bend the curve of global greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions and mitigate the worst outcomes of climate change. While the global media’s focus will quickly shift to other,...
Such feedback loops would increase greenhouse gas emissions even more rapidly, and could lead to additional warming. These events could result in large-scale loss of natural and economic value and would also further accelerate the impact of global warming. As such, climate risk and uncertainty ...

What are global greenhouse gas emissions? Greenhouse Gases: Greenhouse gases are chemicals in the atmosphere capable of trapping infrared radiation and eventually reflecting it back to the Earth's surface. Normally, the infrared radiation from the sun strikes the Earth, warming it while much of the...
