The latest UN Emissions Gap Report states that the current global greenhouse gas nationally determined contributions (NDCs) established for 2030 will produce future mean temperature rises of between 2.6 and 2.8 Celsius (4.7 to 5 Fahrenheit) by mid-century and 3.1 Celsius (5.6 Fahrenheit) by 2100. So much for the aspirational lower 1.5 and upper 2 Celsius goals first agreed to
Read the full story from the University of Illinois. Through funds from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), the Agroecosystem Sustainability Center (ASC) will ramp up efforts to investigate the impact of conservation practices on nitrous oxide and other greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
Achieving climate goals requires significant investments in clean energy, transportation, and other climate technologies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and remove carbon from the atmosphere. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act have resulted in historic levels of public investment to transform existing energy and transportation systems and lay the foundation for emerging climate … Continue reading "A Framework for Equitable Climate Infrastructure Investments"
Considering the climate change prognostications of a future mean atmospheric temperature rise of 3.1 Celsius (5.6 Fahrenheit) by 2100, it would seem imperative that we find engineering solutions and inventions to capture the CO2 and other greenhouse gasses that are causing atmospheric warming. That's why I am writing about three carbon sequestration stories this week, two
Read the full story at Semafor. Asia is now responsible for the majority of global greenhouse gas emissions, and decarbonizing the continent is critical for the world to keep temperature increases below 1.5°C. But one major loophole isn’t just holding back progress — it could doom global net zero goals. Following the COP27 climate summit…
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recently released 2023 greenhouse gas data collected under the EPA’s Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program. In 2023, reported direct emissions of greenhouse gases from large stationary sources, representing approximately 50% of total U.S. emissions, were down by approximately 4% from 2022. More than 8,100 industrial facilities reported greenhouse gas emissions in…
Is financial trading of carbon dioxide offsets a smart way to reduce major greenhouse gas emissions or an opportunity for fraud and abuse? For years, many interests have seen carbon trading, also known as “carbon offsets” – conceptually similar to the U.S. emissions cap and trade projects that accompanied the reduction in sulfur dioxide power plant emissions – as an
