Some in the industry see the warming as an opportunity, as passages through the Arctic open for longer periods, even going so far as to claim there will be lower overall greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the shorter voyages. Warmer water also expands and raises sea levels as well as holds less oxygen.

I was joined by Ocean Conservancy colleagues working to advance ocean-climate action. C, we stand to lose ocean and coastal ecosystems we depend on to sea level rise, warming temperatures, ocean acidification and other climate impacts. The biggest win for this two-week event was the recommitment to limit global warming to 1.5

For example, the ongoing debate over the impact of certain pesticides in agriculture , greenhouse gas emissions are often a battle between the science and industry's attempts to muddy the science and government lobbying to roll back legislation (2). Typically used in conjunction with “greenhouse gas” but some emissions are not GHGs.
