World Bank calls for soot, methane reduction
2013-11-16 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Voice of America: A new World Bank report calls for the reduction of shorter-lived pollutants, such as soot and methane, that could slow the pace of climate change and save lives. A warmer planet creates the conditions for more intense and extreme weather, like the devastating typhoon that hit the Philippines last week, leaving thousands dead and hundreds of thousands homeless. "This is not going to be a one off event," said Rachel Kyte, vice president for Sustainable Development at the World Bank. "The intensity...

Methane Complicates U.S. Greenhouse Emissions Outlook
2013-10-24 01:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate Central: The decline of the use of coal as the primary source of fuel for power plants across the nation is behind a drop in U.S. greenhouse gas emissions in 2012, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced Wednesday. But while both the EPA and the U.S. Energy Information Administration have announced that overall carbon dioxide and greenhouse gas emissions declined nationwide in 2012, hidden in the data is that some states, particularly those producing shale oil and gas, are seeing some increases...

Methane Out, Carbon Dioxide In?
2013-09-27 19:03:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: A University of Virginia engineering professor has proposed a novel approach for keeping waste carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. Andres Clarens, an assistant professor of civil and environmental engineering at U.Va.'s School of Engineering and Applied Science, and graduate student Zhiyuan Tao have published a paper in which they estimate the amount of carbon dioxide that could be stored in hydraulically fractured shale deposits after the methane gas has been extracted. Their peer-reviewed...
