Closer to home, National Centre for Atmospheric Science Laura Wilcox warns that reducing atmospheric pollution as we shut down fossil burning is going to exacerbate (in the short term) global warming due to CO2 ... such as a 40% increase in the heatwaves like China saw this year.

This is an important piece in Nature making the case for better modeling of aerosols in downscaling and emulators. But let’s be clear: the ~0.5C or so additional warming from getting rid of aerosols is already baked into our deep mitigation scenarios. nature.com/articles/d4158…

- Vi i Norge har ikke forstått alvoret i klimakrisen, sa Bjørn H. Samset CICERO - Center for International Climate Research på Politisk frokost m. #statsvitenskap Øivind Bratberg Universitetet i Oslo #climate. Sol- og vindkraft vil, ifølge ham, være viktigst i det grønne skifet. Samset tok til orde for mer tverrfaglig forskning på klima.

Det kraftige regnværet er en følge av de nyhetene vi har fått servert i uker og måneder nå: Verden blir varmere. – Når verden blir ekstra varm, så fører det til at vannet fordamper – og det må ned et sted, sier Bjørn H. Samset ved CICERO - Center for International Climate Research. vg.no/nyheter/utenri…

Ein klar konsekvens av varmare vatn og varmare luft er meir ekstremnedbør. Det er vanskeleg å varsle og vanskeleg å forebygge. The Nansen Center / Nansensenteret Universitetet i Bergen Bjørn H. Samset Cicero Roberto vg.no/nyheter/utenri…
