In just five short years, Spidey has had three of his own movies and appeared in Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame, firmly…

Global daily emissions changes in 2019 and 2020. Credit: Nature Geoscience (2022). DOI: 10.1038/s41561-022-00965-8 An international team of researchers has found that the sudden drop in CO2 emissions during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrates that it is possible to reduce emissions enough to meet the 1.5 degrees Celsius global temperature increase goal. In their paper published in the journal Nature…

Aviation is an industry that’s notoriously difficult to decarbonize. Strict operating and safety requirements limit what technology can be used. Equipment has a long lifetime, so a plane built today will still be flying in 2050. That means technical progress needs to happen quickly to make a dent in emissions decades in the future. “If you want to decarbonize aviation, you have to start now,” says Lynnette Dray, a principal research fellow at University College London.  Keeping emissions low enough to stay under 2 °C…
