Human Alteration of the Carbon Cycle Recently‚ scientists have studied both short- and long-term measurements of atmospheric CO2 levels. Their data revealed that human activities are significantly altering the natural carbon cycle. Since the beginning of the industrial revolution‚ human activities such as the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation have accelerated‚ and both have contributed to a long-term rise in atmospheric CO2. Burning oil and coal releases carbon into the atmosphere far more

Following this will be methods for planning a forest‚ and how they are conveyed before planting in a forest begins. There are many reasons why forests are cut down. One is to benefit economically‚ with furniture and home building. But there is also another reason. Arguments say "the United States could help slow the atmospheric accumulation of carbon dioxide by replacing old-growth forests with faster-growing

Carbon Footprint Paper I chose to do my carbon footprint through http://coolclimate.berkeley.edu. This website provided me with an action plan on ways to reduce tons of CO2/year. Although with that said‚ I was surprised with the result which showed that we are doing 23.8% better than the average household in my area within the same income level. Our travel added up to be 1.9 tons of CO2/year which turned out to be 88.5% better than the average household. Our housing on the other hand came out to

CARBON CREDIT - A NEW MONETARY HARVEST Prologue: Carbon credit is the brain child of United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) to bring about a clean environment in the already polluted world. The increasing awareness about the environmental degradation gave rise to the concept called Carbon Credit. The IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) has observed that: Policies that provide a real or implicit price of carbon could create incentives for producers and

Emissions associated with combustion include nitrogen oxides‚ sulfur oxide‚ carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. Another emission problem is the emission produced from the natural gas.

Carbon Credit Accounting – Opportunities and Challenges Abstract The Ninth Conference of the Parties (COP‐9) decided to adopt an accounting system based on expiring carbon credits to address the problem of non‐permanent carbon storage in forests established under the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM). This article reviews and discusses carbon accounting challenges and opportunities. As the issues for accounting of CER credits is new and it is on elementary stage‚ it will generate a fair amount
