The headline is annoying to me, I feel it should read '2020 emissions in biggest fall since WWII due to pandemic'.

The prefix 'climate change' is redundant, I wish the BBC could get back to being more objective.

You find the prefix "Climate Change:" not objective? It is setting the context for the article. Like "COVID-19: Scientists work on a vaccine".

The context is the global pandemic greatly reducing travel, manufacturing and therefore emissions.

Concepts around 'Climate Change' are very much secondary to that IMO, not the lead
