- Emissions of the greenhouse gas commonly known as laughing gas are soaring. N2O is about 300 times as potent as carbon dioxide at heating the atmosphere. Agricultural soil – especially because of the globe's heavy use of synthetic nitrogen fertilizer – is the principal culprit. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20210603-nitrous-oxide-the-worlds-forgotten-greenhouse-gas 42 comments environment
- Human emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O) — a greenhouse gas 300 times more potent than carbon dioxide (CO2) — increased by 30 per cent between 1980 and 2016. The study involved 57 scientists from 48 institutions in 14 countries. https://www.uea.ac.uk/news/-/article/n2o-emissions-pose-an-increasing-climate-threat-finds-breakthrough-study 15 comments science
- Human-driven N₂O emissions have been growing unabated for many decades, but we may have been seriously underestimating by just how much http://theconversation.com/nitrogen-fertilisers-are-incredibly-efficient-but-they-make-climate-change-a-lot-worse-127103?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=twitterbutton 3 comments science
- Laughing gas, nitrous oxide (N2O), may explain why Earth's oceans didn't freeze over during the so-called Boring Billion, between 1.8 billion and 800 million years ago. https://greatlakesledger.com/2018/08/22/funny-chemistry-in-the-proterozoic-eon-kept-earth-warm-all-thanks-to-laughing-gas/ 10 comments science

- How the Midwest's Corn Farms Are Cooking the Planet. They found that standard ghg emission measures, such as those used by the IPCC, have been undercounting these "riverine" emission sources by a factor of nine; and overall N2O emissions from the area are underestimated by about 40 percent. http://www.motherjones.com/tom-philpott/2015/08/how-midwests-corn-farms-are-cooking-planet 4 comments science
