For 18 months, China’s emissions have been trending down as renewables displace coal and EVs supplant gas-powered cars.
That is the finding of a new analysis, which comes as China takes center stage at the U.N. climate negotiations now underway in Brazil.

It might be true that the world needs to remove ten billion tonnes of CO₂ from the atmosphere every year but it’s never going to happen for many different reasons: technical, financial, social, environmental, governance, etc. If we don’t reduce CO₂ emissions, we’re screwed. That’s it.
Removing CO2 from atmosphere vital to avoid catastrophic tipping points, leading scientist says
10bn tonnes must be captured from the air every year to limit global heating to 1.7C, says Johan Rockström

Climate change strengthened Melissa about the same amount as in Hurricane Milton and Helene last year. However, the percentage increase in damage for Melissa due to climate change (12%) was less that for Milton and Helene (~45%) because Melissa was so strong that there wasn't much extra to destroy.
Climate change strengthened Hurricane Melissa, making the storm's winds stronger and the damage worse. » Yale Climate Connections
Two new rapid attribution studies have found that climate change increased Melissa's winds by 7-10% and damage by 12%.
