<p>A team of scientists found that carbon dioxide becomes a more potent greenhouse gas as more is released into the atmosphere.</p>
<p>The new study, led by scientists at the University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, Science, was published in <em>Science</em> and comes as world leaders meet in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, this week for the United Nations Climate Change Conference COP28. </p>
<p>“Our finding means that as the climate responds to increases in carbon dioxide, carbon dioxide itself becomes a more potent greenhouse gas” said the study’s senior author Brian Soden, a professor of atmospheric sciences at the Rosenstiel School. “It is yet further confirmation that carbon emissions must be curbed sooner rather than later to avoid the most severe impacts of climate change.”</p>
