https://sailing-dulce.nl/home/article-8134 #oceanwarming #SO2 #ElNiño Dinsdag 13-06-2023 Dit is beslist geen alarmisme, het is allemaal echt. De Amerikaanse klimatoloog Jeff Berardelli (Cornell University) plaatst in een tweet een vergelijking van twee dagen wat betreft oceaantemperaturen in de aanloop tot de nieuwe El Niño: 11 juni 1982, toen er een super El Niño in ontwikkeling was, en van jongstleden 11 juni 2023 - met de nieuwe El Niño in aantocht. Een onthutsende vergelijking..
Eskom’s retrofit plan only realizes one quarter of the health benefits associated with compliance with South Africa's Minimum Emissions Standards (MES), due to the almost complete failure to address #SO2 #emissions.
📢 🇿🇦 NEW
CREA report finds Eskom's failure to comply with #SouthAfrica's emission standards for #coal power plants would cause 34,000 deaths & health costs of USD 32 bn.
⚠️ #Eskom is now largest power sector emitter of #SO2 in the world, surpassing retrofitted Chinese utilities. 👇

40% of worldwide shipping is shipping fossil fuels around the globe.
And Europe is increasing this "CO2 shipment to the atmosphere" now by replacing pipelined gas with shipped LNG.
Someone has probably done the maths for the climate load of this significant change?
I'd be interested, you too?
Shipped #LNG overall should cause fewer #methane #leaks than pipelined gas (at least overland?), I guess.
And contrary to pipelined gas, shipped LNG causes #SO2 and #NOx. Both are coolants. NOx by way of tropospheric ozone and then OH radicals which bomb #CH4 molecules to bits.
So the embedded short-term, 10-year, climate-load of shipped LNG should be smaller than that of pipelined gas. Much smaller.
The increased bombing of CH4 molecules by additional OH radicals seems to me a very desirable side effect of Putler's war on #Ukraine, seeing that the OH sink is suspected to be in decline recently.
A decline, maybe as side effect of pandemic-induced less NOx which decreased shipping and reduced road traffic.

Sulfur dioxide (#SO2) emission rates of approximately 120,000 tonnes per day (t/d) were measured on December 4, 2022, and remain elevated at this time even in #NewMexico

Animation of the #CopernicusAtmosphere Monitoring Service total column #SO2 forecast initialized on 29 November at 00 UTC. Assuming an initial injection height of approximately 5km from the eruption of #MaunaLoa, the plume is predicted to be advected eastwards before dissipating. New observations will be assimilated in later forecasts.

Eruption of #Tonga volcano likely not large enough to impact global #climate
At the height above the #JetStream in a layer known as the #stratosphere, #aerosols can remain for years. Importantly, when #SO2 reaches the stratosphere, it reacts with water and creates a hazy layer of gas that prevents sunlight from reaching the Earth's surface and can lead to cooler temperatures.
The SO2 mass from the eruption was 400 million kg which is to less for cooling.
