A relentless interval of hot, dry weather, made worse by heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere, has turned this section of the state into a cauldron of flame, dust, and smoke. It finds more evidence that severe weather events are linked to carbon in the atmosphere and are becoming more extreme. ON THE RADAR.

As air sunk through the atmosphere, it got squeezed and heated. This figure will increase to nearly half of the world’s population by the end of the century, the authors say, even with drastic reductions in greenhouse-gas emissions. Taken together, however, clouds in today’s atmosphere have an overall net cooling effect.

Agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the raising of livestock and growth of crops for human consumption represent 14% of global GHG emissions. While burning methane to generate energy releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, the overall climate impact is reduced and the gas could potentially replace fossil fuel sources.)
