An analysis by a team in Bangladesh found large air quality and associated health benefits accruing to the residents of Dhaka (the capital of Bangladesh) as a result of the rapid conversion of the motor vehicle fleet to CNG. However, CNG conversion was apparently detrimental from a climate change perspective, as CH 4 emissions increased.

Currently, only a small part of Global Bioenergies’ ton scale isobutene production is directed toward e-fuels, using Fraunhofer’s lab scale conversion unit. Since 2013, the brand with the four rings has been offering renewable Audi e-gas on the market. For Audi, e-fuels are more than just a subject of research in laboratories.

Reilly and Rausch compared a baseline scenario—in which temporary payroll cuts and the Bush tax cuts are allowed to expire—to several scenarios that include a carbon tax starting at $20 per ton in 2013 and rising at 4%. Conversely, cutting income taxes would benefit wealthy households because they pay more in taxes.
