The work also carries significant implications for the future climate of industrial Until the United States passed the Clean Air Act in 1970 and strengthened it in 1990, particulate pollution hung thick over the central and eastern states. The findings, published in the journal Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, present a more complete picture of the processes that affect regional climate change. These conclusions are those of a study published today in Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, an Open Access journal of the European Geosciences Union (EGU). "Climate change will greatly reduce biodiversity, even for many common animals and plants," lead author Rachel Warren of the University of East Anglia in England said. NUI Galway's Professor Colin O'Dowd was in London last week to collect the Appleton Medal, awarded to him by the Institute of Physics for his 'distinguished research in environmental and atmospheric physics'. Writing in the EGU's journal Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, scientists from Cyprus, Denmark, Germany, Italy and Saudi Arabia predict that by 2050, a fast approaching milestone a mere 40 years down the line, the average world citizen will experience similar air The researchers studied the impact of man-made emissions on air quality if past emission trends continue and no additional climate change and air pollution reduction measures are implemented. And to those on the other side who think that solar and nuclear will someday become so cheap we will choose to leave that coal alone, I'm afraid you have some basic physics working against you. Air pollution is a major health risk The researchers studied the impact of man -made emissions on air quality, assuming past emission trends continue and no additional climate change and air pollution reduction measures (beyond what is in place since 2005) are implemented. The effect of climate change on European air quality levels has been investigated in earlier studies, for example, [6, 7], but larger effects can be expected over urban areas and during pollution episodes [8]. This claim about the “basic physics working of making billions of tonnes of steel without coal.) However, it's clear the solution to climate change must principally involve an energy transition away from fossil fuels, reduced deforestation and a more rational use of energy.
