    At the cost of having 98% of the world’s electric buses? At the cost of single-handedly making solar power cheaper than fossil fuels in the Asia-pacific region?

    Westerners will really do anything but take responsibility. jfc

    How dare China unmask how much global warming is actually warming the planet!

    Next they’ll start to prove that you don’t need elaborate megaprojects to reduce carbon emissions!

    Paywall. Does it mention the desulphurisation of shipping fuels?

    Sorry I didn’t see the archive link. They do lmao. What a stupid fucking headline.

    But other factors could disrupt this. Just as reductions from China tapered off, in 2020 the global shipping industry implemented new rules forcing ships to curb their aerosol emissions, prompting a sharp fall in pollution over the open ocean. This might be particularly important in changing cloud cover in those regions, notes Hugh Coe at the University of Manchester, UK. “It’s happening in remote places where clouds are super sensitive to change,” he says.
