The Danger Now Is Not only that the Planet Is Warming, but that the Pace of Human-Driven Warming Is Accelerating...
A March 2026 study in Geophysical Research Letters finds the global warming rate has jumped to about 0.35 °C per decade since 2015—roughly 75% faster than the 1970s‑average. The authors argue that, if this acceleration holds, the world could cross the 1.5 °C Paris target around 2030. Critics, including Michael Mann, say the recent heat spike reflects reduced sulphur aerosol cooling from low‑sulphur shipping fuels rather than a true climate‑system speed‑up. The debate hinges on how much of the recent warming is masked by aerosol cuts versus genuine feedbacks.
