We work to ensure fast cuts to the non-carbon dioxide climate pollutants and other fast climate mitigation strategies to slow near-term warming and self-amplifying climate feedbacks, avoid or at least delay catastrophic tipping points, and limit global temperature rise.

Our research confirms that decarbonization alone is insufficient to slow near-term warming to keep below 1.5 °C or even the more dangerous 2 °C guardrail. The fastest and most effective strategy is to combine the marathon to net-zero carbon dioxide (CO2) with the sprint to rapidly cut non-CO2 climate pollutants.
