Abstract Recent climate research increasingly indicates that ozone plays a critical role in coupled chemistry–climate feedback systems influencing atmospheric warming, ecosystem stability, and global carbon cycling. While stratospheric ozone provides essential protection from ultraviolet radiation, surface-level ozone (O₃) acts as a potent phytotoxic pollutant that damages vegetation and suppresses photosynthetic carbon uptake. As warming intensifies […]

Ozone Feedbacks From Carbon Combustion
Tropospheric Ozone, Ecosystem Collapse, and the Failure of Biofuel Narratives Daniel Brouse & Sidd Mukherjee May 9, 2026 Abstract Tropospheric ozone has emerged as one of the most underestimated systemic threats within the climate crisis. While carbon dioxide remains the primary driver of anthropogenic warming, ground-level ozone functions as a powerful secondary feedback mechanism capable […]

Health Impacts of Air Pollution
By Daniel Brouse June 30, 2023 The health impacts of air pollution are both cumulative and irreversible. The more polluted the air, the more severe the effects. The more polluted air you breathe over time, the more severe the effects. That is to say breathing “Moderate” quality air for 3 days might be similar to […]

Health and Climate Change: Health at the Mercy of Fossil Fuels
The Lancet released the report The 2022 report of the Lancet Countdown on health and climate change: health at the mercy of fossil fuels. Q: Are millions of people already dying as a result of human induced climate change? A: Yes. Q: Can millions of people’s lives still be saved? A: Yes, “a health-centred response […]

Tropical Stratospheric Ozone Loss and Rocket Debris
We might have another problem. A whole buncha people, Elon Musk included, are launching thousands of satellites designed to fall into atmosphere at end of life (decade or less) and burn up, not to speak of rocket exhaust… except the products of that burning are all kindsa metal and other oxides whose chemical effects on […]

Pollen and Increased SARS-CoV-2 Infection Rates
The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America published the study Higher airborne pollen concentrations correlated with increased SARS-CoV-2 infection rates, as evidenced from 31 countries across the globe. The research showed that airborne pollen on average accounts for 44% of the variation in infection rates in addition to […]

COVID-19 and Air Pollution
by Daniel Brouse March 25, 2020 Email: help@membrane.com Abstract: Many compromised respiratory and immune systems are a result of air pollution. COVID-19 is having a larger impact on the population due to underlying compromised respiratory and immune systems caused by air pollution. Hypothesis: Large portions of the world are susceptible to particulate and ozone pollution. […]

The Hemp Myth, Carbon Sinks and the Environment
by Daniel Brouse and Sidd Mukherjee Q: Is hemp a good solution for carbon sequestration (carbon sinks) and/or beneficial to the environment? A: No, not really. In general, hemp only acts as a carbon sink while it is growing and left unharvested. The harvesting usually negates any net-negative carbon sink. (ie more CO2 is released […]

Air Quality and Climate Change
Current models indicate an increase in air quality alerts. The increase risk is not necessarily from an increase in pollution. An on-going research study conducted by InternetU.org suggests a warming climate is likely contributing to reduction in air quality. The frequency of air quality alerts is on the rise in the United States and many […]
