L'augmentation des températures, résultant de l'émission de chaleur anthropique, pourrait amener une demande d'énergie croissante pour le rafraîchissement, notamment via la climatisation, qui conduit à son tour à une plus grande émission de chaleur anthropique [...] 3, record 1, French, - %C3%A9mission%20de%20chaleur%20anthropique

A mechanism for the formation of atmospheric aerosols via the gas to particle conversion of highly oxidized organic molecules is found to be the dominant aerosol formation process in the preindustrial boundary layer over land. The inclusion of this process in a global aerosol model raises baseline preindustrial aerosol concentrations and could lead to a reduction of 27% in estimates of anthropogenic aerosol radiative forcing. 1, record 5, English, - anthropogenic%20aerosol%20radiative%20forcing
