UCS is advocating for the US to commit to cutting its emissions at least 70% below 2005 levels by 2035, a level that can be met if we implement additional strong policies (beyond the Inflation Reduction Act and other existing federal and state policies) to accelerate the deployment of renewable energy and the phase out of fossil fuels.

We began this project in 2005, when we realized there was a significant lack of accurate and public data of this kind. We’ve tracked changes in space for nearly two decades Back in 2005, we counted 810 actively working satellites; almost exactly half of these were owned by the United States.

Despite adding six million more passenger cars, trucks, and SUVs to the roads over the last 10 years, California’s gasoline consumption has dropped over two billion gallons from its peak in 2005. Gasoline use per person has also fallen, from 445 gallons per year per person in 2005, to under 350 gallons per year per person in 2024.

The impacts of East Asian SO 2 emission changes (which have dropped precipitously since ~2005) are noticeable in the global mean trends, but because they have been relatively smooth, the impact on the 2023/4 residuals is small. A number of things stand out.

Furthermore, if you squinted, you could perhaps convince yourself that there was a correlation to solar activity – well, at least Soon could ( Soon, 2005) ). Indeed, it was still possible to claim in 2000 that Arctic temperatures had not yet exceeded levels in the late 1930s/early 1940s. And which solar reconstruction did he use?
