2013 Carbon Footprint Until very recently‚ most people had never heard of a “carbon footprint.” Now‚ all of a sudden‚ the phrase is hard to avoid. In an age of slick slogans‚ fast fashions and fickle fads it’s easy to assume that this is just another quirky passing gimmick. But it could well be the most important concept of our time. A carbon footprint is the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted as a direct or indirect result of an activity (Yarrow‚ Joanna. How to Reduce Your Carbon Footprint:

In 2010‚ Labor Prime Minister Julia Gillard decided to implement carbon tax in order to gain more support in response to the change in climate (http://isen.northwestern.edu/doc/pdf/URG-ISEN_ALloyd.Jun12_ProjectSummary.pdf) and on the 8th of November 2011‚ the ‘Clean Energy Legislative Package’ is then passed by the Senate which sets out the way that Australia will introduce the carbon tax to reduce carbon pollution (http://www.deloitte.com/view/en_AU/au/services/assurance/accountingtechnical/wha

Carbon Footprint The term “carbon footprint” refers to the amount of carbon dioxide we emit into the air every year. C02 is produced by many sources and is the gas responsible for Global warming and alarming changes in our climate. As we use our resources‚ the negative impact on our environment increases. The more C02 emitted in the air the more our ozone layer is affected. C02 is a natural gas and is always being emitted and absorbed to and from the air. There is a certain amount of carbon

It is also a basis of all life and continually cycled and globally existed. Carbon dioxide is obtained from various sources‚ including emissions from volcanoes or industries and combustion products of organic compounds and the respiratory activity of living organisms. Carbon dioxide not only going into the atmosphere through the

ASSIGNMENT: 1 SESSION: 2012/13 TUTOR: Stuart Allan WORD COUNT: 1‚891 Carbon fibre is a strong‚ yet light‚ reinforced polymer. Carbon fibres are used in applications where high strength and light weight are required. Carbon fibres can also be easily moulded into the desired shape. They are also chemically inert‚ resistant to heat‚ and do not expand under changing temperatures. Machining of carbon fibre materials can generate airborne particles. The potential health effects of

In order to survive‚ humans and animals must give off carbon dioxide to take in oxygen‚ whereas plants must take in the compound and give off oxygen. Carbon Dioxide has numerous unique characteristics‚ properties‚ and safety measures that everyone should be aware of. Being aware of this compound and what it

The carbon cycle shows how carbon is recycled -Carbon dioxide is taken in by plants in order to carry out photosynthesis and make food. -The carbon from the carbon dioxide is used to make carbohydrates‚ fats and proteins that make up the plant body. For example the cell wall of plants is made from cellulose - a carbohydrate. -Some of this carbon is returned into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide when the plant respires. When these plants are eaten by other animals this carbon becomes part

The Carbon Cycle Poppy Matless Carbon is present in all living organisms. When organisms die‚ the carbon is recycled for future generations. 1. Carbon is released as CO2 via respiration and combustion 2. CO2 is absorbed by producers (grass‚ plants etc) 3. Animals feed off of the plant‚ passing on carbon throughout the food chain‚ losing some carbon as CO2 respiration. 4. When the animal dies‚ it is eaten by decomposers‚ and the carbon returns to the atmosphere 5. If decomposition
