A global knowledge base is needed if we are to develop common standards. Some of the alternative fuels available today can already help significantly reduce emissions with minor or no modifications to engines and infrastructures. These synthetic fuels can be produced from renewable energies and carbon dioxide.

On the one hand, a shift to natural gas is promoted as climate mitigation because it has lower carbon per unit energy than coal or oil. On the other hand, methane (CH 4 ), the prime constituent of natural gas, is itself a more potent GHG than carbon dioxide (CO 2 ); CH 4. Alvarez, Stephen W. Pacala, James J. Winebrake, William L.

The combination of harvesting whole forests and burning long-sequestered carbon sources such as coal or oil has impaired the Earth’s carbon cycle at an increasing pace. To restore balance we must protect the oxygen-producing biomass of Earth and reduce the amount of carbon emissions. But use of petroleum will continue.
