The spike was attributed to a slew of causes, including behavior changes after COVID-19 vaccines became widely available, but environmental advocates say it's worrisome.
-
A group of scientists used chemistry to convert the powerful greenhouse gas methane into safer chemicals that serve as the base for some plastics.
-
Carbon dioxide emissions are rebounding after a dip in 2020, and researchers say that at the current rate, Earth's "carbon budget" will be exhausted in roughly 11 years.
