A paper by a team from the University of Chicago and MIT suggests that technology-driven cost reductions in fossil fuels will lead to the continued use of fossil fuels—oil, gas, and coal—unless governments pass new taxes on carbon emissions. Their analysis is published in the Journal of Economic Perspectives. F of warming.

Black carbon—soot—is a global-warming agent the immediate control of which will slow the demise of Arctic sea ice faster than will control of any other global-warming agent, Jacobson said. In 2007, Jacobson and four colleagues testified in the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on the role of black carbon.

Since commissioning these additional stations, Union has had over 2000 charge sessions from 130 users, providing 48,000 eMiles and avoiding over 1,000 gallons of gasoline (10 mTCO2e)! Says Dranoff, “So I think being able to complete that loop and install EV charging, incentivizes people to make the leap to EV adoption.”

I believe the transistor is and will remain key to grappling with the impacts of global warming. My lab at the University of California, Berkeley, saw that point coming more than a decade earlier. Since the first report of 3D NAND by Toshiba in 2007, the number of stacked layers has grown from 4 to beyond 200.
