That would be CO2, not shown here. We continue to set yearly records for CO2 pollution. 2024 was the highest emissions ever, beating 2023, which surpassed 2022 etc.
This isn’t GHGs, they’re talking about like smog and particulate pollution, Sulfur Dioxide is what primarily caused acid rain, CO is toxic.
We still won’t peak GHG concentrations for a while, as that requires net zero emissions.
It’ll be hot out, but at least your kids can play outside without developing asthma. Agreed this is objectively good news, even in the greater context of more needing to be done
isn’t this fantastic news? doesn’t that mean global warming might slow down?
On the contrary.
SO2 is like a handbrake on CO2.
Radiative forcing
In a way, air pollution is “good” for the climate - not for the biosphere though.

Yaaay???

This is still fantastic news, though. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. Celebrate the wins when you can.
