fresh data released by the European Environment Agency (eea) indicate that meeting greenhouse gas (ghg) emission cuts set by the Kyoto Protocol (kp), the global treaty to fight climate change, might be an uphill task for the European Union (eu) nations. Their ghg emissions rose by 1.3 per cent from …
the muted debate on whether the emissions trading scheme (ets) should apply to the eu 's aviation sector took a controversial turn recently. eu environment commissioner Stavros Dimas termed a proposal by the uk's largest airport owner, baa, to integrate the sector into ets as a "possibility that merits serious …
www.opendemocracy.net/forums/ Let's get wise Many organisation around the world are coming up with innovative ways to lower emissions of greenhouse gases. The web portal openDemocracy's My ZeroCarbonCity project invites visitors to put in their views on reducing emissions f these gases. "What would your ideal climate-friendly city look like? Would …
The purpose of the project activity is to set up 5,500 biogas plants (digesters) of 2m3 capacity each for single households. Each household will utilize the dung of its cows to feed the digester for the production of biogas for cooking purpose and heating of hot water. The aim of …
if people in Africa were to switch to charcoal as cooking fuel from wood, it would not only significantly reduce greenhouse gas (ghg) emissions but also save millions of lives, claim researchers. Led by Dan Kammen of the University of California, Berkeley, the scientists calculated the health and environmental effects …
thanks to a new us study, the science of climate change may no longer be abused by nations to shrug off responsibility of reducing greenhouse emissions. Scientists from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory have produced the first clear evidence of human-produced global warming in …
South Asian emissions of fossil fuel SO2 and black carbon increased 6-fold since 1930, resulting in large atmospheric concentrations of black carbon and other aerosols. This period also witnessed strong negative trends of surface solar radiation, surface evaporation, and summer monsoon rainfall. These changes over India were accompanied by an …

on february 16, the Kyoto Protocol to combat global warming became law, binding industrialised nations to reduce by 2012 their greenhouse gas (ghg) emissions to 5.2 per cent below the 1990 levels. A flexible trading mechanism for emissions provided for in the treaty also opens up opportunities for developing countries …
The authors analyzed the dynamics of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from household fuel use in sub-Saharan Africa from 2000 to 2050. The scenarios included a business-as-usual (BAU) scenario, in which fuel consumption and tree-harvesting practices change little except through population growth and urbanization, and large-scale shifts to charcoal- and petroleum-based …
The Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (SRES) produced families of 21st century greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions trajectories that aim to be consistent with current knowledge and span a wide range of plausible futures. This study performs a standard econometric analysis on the simulation model outputs from six SRES scenarios to …
