It has an extremely high profile as it is intrinsically linked to worldwide efforts

Low-carbon economy is an emerging economic system and development model‚ contains a series of new low-carbon industries‚ low-carbon technologies‚ low-carbon city‚ low-carbon life. By substantially increasing the use efficiency‚ large-scale use of renewable energy and low-carbon energy‚ large-scale research and development of greenhouse gas emission reduction technology‚ to build low-carbon society‚ maintenance of ecological balance. Development of low-carbon economy is both a involved in the mode

print“We are being advised to reduce our carbon footprint. Discuss the significance of this for the individual and for industry” When talking about climate change‚ footprint is a metaphor for the total impact that something has and carbon is shorthand for all the different greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming (1). The term carbon footprint is a measure of the impact our activities have on the environment‚ and in particular climate change. It relates to the amount of greenhouse gases

temperatures of the oceans. Emissions are coming from places like cement production (which is a leading cause) deforestation‚ and fossil fuels like coal‚ natural gas and oil‚ which increase carbon emissions‚ which in turn‚ increase ocean temperatures. Without a human element on earth‚ the normal rate of carbon emissions would be drastically lower than what is it today and ocean temperatures wouldn’t be increasing at its current rate.

elevated temperatures on the coated carbon TRC tensile strength is shown in Figure 10. The mean results of strength‚ strain and elastic modulus (at 7 days of age + heating and cooling process) are given in Table 4. The values‚ as well as the standard deviations‚ refer to three TRC test specimens. As well as in the uncoated carbon TRC‚ a strain-hardening behavior is clearly observed in the stress-strain curves up to 400°C. Although not impregnated by matrix‚ the coated carbon TRC presented higher tensile

INTRODUCTION The purpose of this term paper is to determine the potential and limits of the carbon market integration . In this paper we will discuss shortly about the political economy of the carbon trading systems and top-down and bottom-up integration scenarios towards a global carbon market. Cap-and-trade systems establish property rights to emissions‚ allocate them to actors that are included in the system‚ create a market in which those actors can trade these property rights

Oil consumption in less developed countries | Empirical study on oil consumption in less developed countries | Abstract: This paper investigates the relation between GDP and oil consumption in a sample of 71 LDC’s. Two outlier countries with a deviating rate of oil consumption are found. Equatorial Guinea has relatively low oil consumption‚ while The Seychelles has relatively high oil consumption‚ in relation to their GDP. After that possible factors that might affect oil consumption are discussed

In Let Them Eat Carbon‚ Sinclair repeatedly stresses that the attempts politicians and governments are making to reduce greenhouse gas emissions are very expensive and generally ineffective. Ordinary families pay a heavy price for the attempts governments make to control emissions‚ as they increase electricity bills‚ raise the price of gasoline‚ and put manufacturing jobs at risk. This issue hits certain people particularly hard: industrial worker‚ as they are already struggling to compete with

Consumerism has overtaken modern life. What problems can this situations cause‚ and how can these problems be solved? Evaluate your solutions. From the nineteenth century‚ consumption in modern economies has been dominance gradually and has overtaken modern life. Sociologists recognise that ‘shopping and consuming has now become a major social practice of everyday life (Macionis. J & Plummer. K‚ 2012. P 525)’. However‚ consumerism also has some negative influence‚ such as‚ hyperconsumption
