Scientists propose burying it below oceans WORLD carbon dioxide levels are rising. The future is expected to be exceptionally warm. Many technologies are being proposed to tackle it. Efficiently reducing global warming requires carbon capture in large amounts. Furthermore, the captured carbon has to stay that way for thousands of years. Methods for carbon capture should be
One of the world's biggest owners of oil and gas tankers has become the first major operator to announce plans to enter the market to transport captured carbon dioxide.
Maersk Tankers, part of Denmark's AP Moller-Maersk, said demand for the service could be vast - around 750m tonnes of carbon dioxide are emitted from large power plants around the North Sea alone.
Going green not only helps save the environment, but it can also help you make big money if you are enterprising enough. Innovative people are trying to make the best of both worlds, writes Abhijit Parashar
The distinguished climate scientist James E Hansen from NASA along with an interdisciplinary group of nine renowned scientists have put in a recent research paper titled 'Target Atmospheric CO : Where Should 2 Humanity Aim?'.They have issued a re-assessment of earlier climate change predictions.
This report focuses on the impact of the evolution of the world oil price on the cost of future GHG mitigation measures. Projections of the cost of mitigation policies are a key input for national and international negotiations on future mitigation of GHG emissions among public policy makers and other stakeholders.
The final agreement on the EU climate package retains the goal to reduce emissions by 20 per cent. Together with a 20-per-cent share of renewables and 20-per-cent energy savings, this creates the triple goal of 20-20-20 by 2020.
This paper summarises the importance of wetlands in relation to climate change, as a basis for examining their potential role in the measures for Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD) being discussed under the Kyoto Protocol. The question is addressed also in relation to relevant aspects of other intergovernmental agreements.
