Study Shows Ethanol Produces More CO2 Emissions Than Gasoline
2014-05-02 20:22:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
EcoWatch: A Northwestern University study by an economist and a chemist reports that when fuel prices drove residents of So Paulo, Brazil, to mostly switch from ethanol to gasoline in their flexible-fuel vehicles, local ozone levels dropped 20 percent. At the same time, nitric oxide and carbon monoxide concentrations tended to go up. The four-year study is the first real-world trial looking at the effects of human behavior at the pump on urban air pollution. This empirical analysis of atmospheric pollutants,...

Bloomberg: The U.S. Energy Department said it will create a new reserve to stockpile 1 million barrels of gasoline at two Northeast U.S. locations to prevent the type of shortages that occurred after Superstorm Sandy in 2012. The refined petroleum product reserve will provide gasoline within 24 hours of extreme weather events such as hurricanes, tidal surges and snow and icing conditions, Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz said today on a conference call with reporters. Damage to refineries and storage terminals...

Study Shows Ethanol Produces Worse 'Global Warming' Pollution Than Gasoline
2014-04-22 06:15:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Townhall: Well, this is going to be a heartbreaker for the hysterical global warming crowd. According to a new study, emissions from burning corn are worse for the environment and produce more CO2 or 'global warming' gases than the burning of traditional gasoline. Biofuels made from the leftovers of harvested corn plants are worse than gasoline for global warming in the short term, a study shows, challenging the Obama administration's conclusions that they are a much cleaner oil alternative and will help...
