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.

In a new study published online 10 March in the ACS journal Environmental Science and Technology , however, Stanford University professor Mark Jacobson finds that local CO 2 emissions in isolation may increase local ozone and particulate matter. Not all carbon dioxide emissions are equal. Articles ASAP doi: 10.1021/es903018m.

Yet another reason to think again about the ethanol craze in an article in today's LA Times. Of our "alternative fuel" options, only electricity can truly be made renewably (wind, solar, geothermal, small hydro), with no carbon or other noxious emissions. I blogged about this previously here.

Sold for US $299, the View Plus can gauge seven critical metrics: radon , particulates, carbon dioxide, humidity, temperature, volatile organic compounds, and air pressure. Ionization can itself create ozone. The state of California has banned such ozone generators entirely. In fact, ionization can itself create ozone.

Up there, 10 to 50 kilometers above the Earth’s surface, ozone molecules absorb the sun’s ultraviolet light, protecting life far below. Eventually, they’ll add equipment to spray tiny aerosol particles of calcium carbonate, the compound found in limestone, blackboard chalk, and Tums antacids.

On a per-storage basis, the team found that the NiMH technology was found to have the highest environmental impact, followed by NCM and then LFP, for all categories considered except ozone depletion potential.

Spectrum : When you talk about climate interventions, are you including carbon removal and sequestration in that category? We do some work on carbon removal, but that's pretty big space with a lot of investment. Spectrum : In September, Spectrum published an article by the researchers working on that marine cloud brightening project.
