Suited for on demand ventilation, Series CDTA combines carbon dioxide, humidity, temperature, occupancy override, and temperature set point measurements in one. Transmitters use Single-Beam, Dual-Wavelength NDIR sensor for carbon dioxide, capacitive polymer sensor for humidity, and band gap sensor for temperature. Field selectable BACnet or Modbus® communications transmit measurements to building controller and allow transmitters to be daisy chained with other communicating sensors.

Kenya Carbon Credit Tree Protection Program to Grow Fivefold

Bloomberg: Wildlife Works Carbon LLC, a U.S.- based business selling carbon credits in the voluntary market generated by forest conservation, plans to expand fivefold the biodiversity-rich areas it protects in Kenya. Disappearing forests deprive the East African economy of as much as $75 million of income a year, about five times the amount the country earns from forestry and logging, the United Nations Environment Programme and state-run Kenya Forest Service said in 2012. Deforestation has also disrupted...

Courier-Journal: A national tax on anything that produces carbon emissions - gasoline, airplanes and coal-burning power plants - is the goal of the new Kentucky chapter of Citizens' Climate Lobby, an international nonprofit group seeking to curb global warming. The tax would be revenue neutral, said Zaurie Zimmerman, an architect and Louisville native who spoke Saturday at the Kentucky chapter's first meeting. That means any collections would be returned in monthly payments to households, she said. As a result,...

To address climate change, nothing substitutes for reducing carbon dioxide emissions
2014-06-28 02:46:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: The politically expedient way to mitigate climate change is essentially no way at all, according to a comprehensive new study by University of Chicago climatologist Raymond Pierrehumbert. Among the climate pollutants humans put into the atmosphere in significant quantities, the effects of carbon dioxide (CO2) are the longest-lived, with effects on climate that extend thousands of years after emissions cease. But finding the political consensus to act on reducing CO2 emissions has been nearly impossible....
