These factors included a decline in the carbon intensity of the energy supply (CO 2 /British thermal units [Btu]) of 1.8%; and a 3.4% Specific circumstances, such as the very warm fourth quarter of 2015 and relatively low natural gas prices, put downward pressure on emissions as natural gas was substituted for coal in electricity generation.

Reducing emissions of black carbon soot and ground-level ozone would quickly make a considerable dent in the climate change problem and would also contribute to public health and protect crop yields, according to an essay in the September/October issue of Foreign Affairs. Besides a danger to breathe, ozone lowers crop yields. Earlier post.)

They used a lot more coal than they originally admitted to, several hundred million tons more. Like many other people, we were writing articles around 2000 about the decline in China’s energy consumption in the late 1990s. Like the United States, China has become among the world’s largest importers of oil, gas and coal.

It’s not sexy and it doesn’t make a bunch of old school, balding, white, male, carbon collaborators stinking filthy rich, so it’s no wonder they’ve done every evil and despicable thing in their power to keep this weapon from being aimed at them. Won’t that be fun?! The Big Dick Cheney Effect.

They think BYD has a shot at becoming the worlds largest automaker, primarily by selling electric cars, as well as a leader in the fast-growing solar power industry. By about 2000, BYD had become one of the worlds largest manufacturers of cellphone batteries. tons of carbon dioxide. Electric cars will be one answer.

To that end, the CES, over its non-indicative name (it has little in common with, for instance, Canada's Clean Fuel Standard ) is more than just carbon bookkeeping. Clean energy projects, such as wind and solar farms, would see a windfall. So it's unclear just how much solar, wind, and batteries would grow.
