Reduced Air Pollution Accelerates Global Warming
A University of Reading study reveals that reduced air pollution in East Asia, particularly China's 75% reduction in sulfur dioxide emissions over 15 years, has unexpectedly accelerated global warming by 0.07°C due to the removal of a cooling effect from air pollutants, necessitating more aggressive...

Sustainable Diets: Reducing Australia's Food Carbon Footprint
A CSIRO study reveals that Australians' food choices and waste contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions; however, adopting a healthier, lower-emission diet can reduce this impact by 42-71%, according to further research.

FAO and OECD: Reducing Agriculture's Emissions While Feeding a Growing World
The FAO and OECD report projects a 13% increase in global food consumption by 2032, necessitating a 14% rise in agricultural production; however, with improved practices, a 7% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions is possible alongside a 10% increase in food production.
