Comparison of relative contributions from various sources to total BC emissions between China and other countries/regions including India, North America, and Africa. In addition, predicted oil consumption for use in motor vehicles between 2008 and 2050 were used to develop the inventory. Earlier post.). Credit: ACS, Wang et al.

Environmental costs are often not shown on financial statements because the bearers of such costs can be either particular individuals or society at large, are often both non-monetary and problematic to quantify for comparison with monetary values. It is predicted that by 2030, the global demand for freshwater will exceed supply by 40%.

By comparison, the theoretical yield of ethanol from a dry ton of corn is 124.4 The process also uses less than half the water per gallon than required for the production of gasoline from conventional crude, and about one-third to one-quarter of the water per gallon required for the production of gasoline from oil sands oil, Bolson said.

Halophytes can be productive sources of biomass energy; for example, salicornia seed is 32% oil by mass. The results are expected to be available in late 2010. In addition to the salicornia seed oil that can be converted into fuel, the halophyte yields protein meal, and green tips and biomass (straw) that remains after harvesting.

Change in primary oil demand by sector and region in the central New Policies Scenario, 2010-2035. Under the WEO 2011 central scenario, oil demand rises from 87 million barrels per day (mb/d) in 2010 to 99 mb/d in 2035, with all the net growth coming from the transport sector in emerging economies.

In July 2010, the National Research Council (NRC) appointed the Committee to Review of the 21 st Century Truck Partnership, Phase 2, to conduct an independent review of the 21 st Century Truck Partnership (21CTP). One negative consequence of this approach is that the three trucks may never be tested using a common cycle for comparison.

Val Miftakhov got into the EV game in 2010 when he founded eMotorWerks, which created an innovative smart charging solution and was acquired by the Enel Group in 2017. My father worked in the oil industry, but his formal education was in aviation maintenance and mechanics back in the Soviet Union, so I got exposed to some of that early on.

Two prime areas of focus for the group are the activities of protists (a diverse group of eukaryotic microorganisms) that live in the gut of termites and degrade the cellulose in wood fiber; and the activities of groups of microorganisms that contain oil-producing algae. As a result, says Moriya, they produce oil for buoyancy.

"The Volt continues to be one of our highest priorities among all GMs future product programs and remains on track for a November 2010 launch," spokesman David Darovitz told Automotive News. That way you have a fair basis of comparison, you know, apples to apples and all that jazz. Forget the black helicopter conspiracies.
