EU's CO2 Emissions from Energy Use Dropped by 2.5% in 2013
2014-05-08 15:23:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Softpedia: Specialists working with Eurostat, i.e. the statistical office of the European Union, have recently released a new report saying that, last year, overall carbon dioxide emissions from energy use dropped by about 2.5% when compared to 2012. To put things into perspective, it need be said that, back in 2012, the European Union's carbon dioxide emissions resulting from energy use were documented to have dropped by just 1.6% in comparison to a 2011 baseline. "Eurostat estimates that in 2013 carbon...

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,...

IPCC: CO2 Emissions Soar, Yet Paths Avoid Calamity Open
2014-04-13 20:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Environment News Service: Global greenhouse gases emissions grew more quickly between 2000 and 2010 than in any of the three previous decades, reaching record levels despite a growing number of policies to reduce climate change, finds a new report by economists with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, released today in Berlin. Still, it is possible, using a wide array of technological measures and changes in behavior, to limit the increase in global mean temperature to 2°C (3.6°F) above pre-industrial levels,...
