2 injection at 20 km (dotted line), at 13.5 km (dashed line), and at 13.5 km including BC (solid line). For each scenario, the injection was over a 10-day period every June at the equator. (
B) Burden for the injection at 13.5 km including BC in latitude bands: Solid line is global, dashed line is 30°N to 30°S, dotted line is 30°N to 90°N, and dash-dotted line is 30°S to 90°S. The model is running in a free mode, so there is natural variability in the dynamics impacting the aerosol loading from year to year. It takes approximately 2 years to reach a pseudo equilibrium loading, and interannual variability is apparent in the last 4 years plotted.

UNITED NATIONS, May 13 2021 (IPS) - The Dominican Republic opened the 2021 virtual Latin America and the Caribbean Climate Week with a pledge to increase the country’s climate ambition by reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by 27 percent and maintaining progress towards climate neutrality according to the goals of the Paris Agreement.

Let’s consolidate a regional vision in the face of climate change and bring a strong regional position to COP26,” said Dominican Republic’s Environment and Natural Re
7M hectares of Philippine land is forested and that’s bad news The country has been vulnerable to massive flooding linked to deforestation. The coronavirus pandemic is also a catastrophe that arose from populations occupying wild animal habitats. BY KAROL ILAGAN May 12, 2021 | 02:04:00 PM
Key findings:
Forest loss persists in the Philippines even with a log ban and protection laws in place.
Forest cover has remained the same since the first Aquino administration as losses in some parts of the country have eclipsed gains in others.
The Mimaropa region – covering Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon and Palawan – has seen the worst deforestation in recent years.
