A team at the University of Calgary (Canada) has compared the energy intensities and lifecycle GHG emissions of unconventional oils (oil sands and oil shale) alongside shale gas, coal, lignite, wood and conventional oil and gas. How does this relate to the life cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity?

The results have important implications for Earth’s climate because methane is about 25 times more powerful than carbon dioxide when it comes to warming the planet over a long period. In addition to coal mining, other major sources of methane emissions globally include wetlands, agriculture, and oil and gas facilities.

The global transportation industry firms lag behind ‘Global 500 Companies’ in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and setting reduction targets, according to a new report from the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). CDP drew on two datasets for the analysis. These 53 companies are among the largest in the sector in the world.

An analysis of the US refining sector, based on linear programming (LP) modeling, finds that refining plausibly high volumes of Canadian oil sands crudes in US refineries in 2025 would lead to a modest increase in refinery CO 2 emissions (ranging between 5.4% to 9.3%) from a 2010 baseline, depending upon the supply scenario.

Legislation giving biofuels preferences on the basis of greenhouse gas benefits should be avoided. The potential for production of ethanol in Latin America and the Caribbean is high, and much of it could be delivered to US coastal regions at a lower cost than shipping corn-based ethanol from the US Midwest.

So let me get this straight - while those of us who are trying to lead greener lives, have been cutting our carbon footprints and working with our cities, states and the rest of the USA to help them do likewise, Killer Coal has been playing us for chumps and wiping out all our efforts every single second of every day. Plus the vig of course.

One way or another, Sokol says, energy companies will need to produce more energy while emitting less carbon dioxide. They generate fewer greenhouse gas emissions than cars that burn gasoline, and they have lower fuel costs, even when oil is cheap. tons of carbon dioxide. Electric cars will be one answer.
