Cleaner air is revealing previously masked warming

Sulphate aerosols from fossil-fuel combustion reflect sunlight and alter clouds, partly offsetting greenhouse warming, but their short atmospheric lifetime means that cooling disappears quickly when pollution falls.

Kelp conservation challenges the seaweed carbon-removal pitch

A new study argues that cultivating seaweed is being overstated as a climate solution because carbon released through seaweed loss may exceed the amount absorbed by new cultivation.

Cheatsheet for Kelp conservation challenges the seaweed carbon-removal pitch. Text equivalent is attached.

Why it matters: Governments, researchers and companies considering seaweed for emissions offsets need to account for losses from existing kelp forests rather than counting only carbon captured by new projects.

Open original · newscientist.com

Open cheatsheet → Post to X

What changed
The study shifts attention from expanding seaweed cultivation to preventing carbon losses from declining kelp forests.[3]
Why now
About 60 per cent of kelp forests are in decline, raising concern that ecosystem losses may outweigh cultivation gains.[3]
Watch next
Watch for stronger measurements of carbon sequestration by seaweed and the net carbon balance of declining, restored and farmed macroalgae.[3]
