The wasteful approach of throwing more computing power at a problem to get better results has been dubbed red AI. In addition to making IT greener, engineers can use it to help make manufacturing, energy, agriculture, health care, and buildings greener. Let's pledge—and act now—to create a cleaner and greener planet.

However, to extract ever more minerals by mining and dispose of the waste in landfills, would be to continue the practices that got the world into its current environmental mess.

We expected it would come from higher prices or a supply disruption—we’ve all been surprised.)

To address the lack of emissions reductions in road transport and buildings, a separate new emissions trading system is set up for fuel distribution for road transport and buildings.

In 2008, a report by UNEP called for the elimination of fossil-fuel subsidies, concluding that such subsidies often lead to increased levels of consumption and waste; place a heavy burden on government finances; can undermine private and public investment in the energy sector; and do not always end up helping the people who need them most.

Under the current set of prices and slate of feedstocks available, you can produce Green Diesel fuels from renewable fats and greases at a price competitive with petroleum diesel—provided you get feedstock at the price needed. Really the question is can the feedstocks be procured at a price competitive to petroleum oil.

A new report from the National Research Council examines and, when possible, estimates, “hidden” costs of energy production and use—such as the damage air pollution imposes on human health—that are not reflected in market prices of coal, oil, other energy sources, or the electricity and gasoline produced from them.

To ignore this potential is wasteful and foolish. It is wasteful and destructive to be burning this versatile molecule; we must stop.
