Despite the potential of CDR technology, it is expensive and limited in scale. Therefore, it cannot replace efforts to decarbonize and reduce emissions.
The benefits of CDR technology are "far in the future, whereas the risks of initiating this industry and this infrastructure development are local, short-term, & much more immediate"

The study's authors found that the first year in which each of these thresholds was systematically exceeded occurred within the initial 20-year periods that reached the same temperature thresholds.
This pattern suggests that, by reaching an average of 1.5ºC above pre-industrial levels in 2024, we may have already entered a 20-year warming period, which could imply a breach of the Paris Agreement

Allergiques au pollen, gare à vous ! Les rhumes des foins et autres allergies saisonnières sont de plus en plus répandus et surtout plus tenaces. S’il est globalement établi que leur aggravation est imputable au réchauffement climatique, les conséquences de celle-ci sont moins connues. Le coût sociétal et économique est pourtant élevé, commente la presse internationale.#publicationsscientifiques #sciencesetenvironnement #économie #pollution #climat #changementclimatique
