TL;DR Summary

The reduction of sulphur pollution from global shipping in 2020 has led to a significant increase in global heating, doubling the long-term average rate, according to new research. The cut in pollution, which previously helped block sunlight and form clouds, has inadvertently revealed the impact of geoengineering. While some scientists believe this pollution cut is a major factor in recent temperature spikes, others argue its effect is smaller. The study highlights the complexities and risks of geoengineering as a temporary solution to global warming.
