Trump’s EPA will no longer limit pollution from gas and coal-burning power plants.
Reminder: Trump took millions of dollars in donations from Big Oil, and his EPA chief Lee Zeldin is cozy with the coal industry.
Is there anything this regime won’t destroy to please its bankrollers?

Black carbon can do more than just store carbon.
Its dissolved fraction can shuttle electrons. Higher pyrolysis temperatures greatly accelerate electron transfer, while tannin-like and condensed aromatic molecules help drive the process.

Cleaner shipping fuel cuts glacier and sea ice melting black carbon emissions. #CleanerFuel #BlackCarbon #NoToHFO #Cryosphere
🚢🧊 NEW RESEARCH: #BlackCarbon emissions from shipping contribute to Arctic Sea ice loss. Our study finds: ships traveling to and from #EU ports play a key role in these emissions—and focusing only on ships flying EU flags may be underestimating the EU's climate impact.

We are honored to work on this #Blackcarbon methodology with MECS and inspired by the enthusiasm stakeholders have shown for it. Many cookstove carbon projects are not only reducing CO2 emissions but also contributing to mid-century climate stabilization, a key co-benefit.
🚀Phase2 of BC Add On #Methodology is now complete, transforming it from a concept into a scientifically validated, #market ready #framework.
Next steps:
