The project will enable at least 44 buses in Ride On Montgomery County’s transit fleet to transition from diesel to electric, advancing the County’s goal to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2035, reducing lifetime emissions by more than 155,000 tons, while delivering resilience to climate events and power outages.
An international team of researchers has discovered that chemical aging determines to a major extent the concentration and the characteristics of organic aerosol particles, which have a significant effect on climate. To date, this aspect has not been accounted for in regional and global climate models.
Just four months ago, in October, the UN’s IPCC Climate Report gave us, at best, 12 years to take bold and drastic action in cutting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions if we want to limit the level of already baked-in climate catastrophe. In 2019 alone more easy-to-connect climate crisis dots have made worldwide news: .

The Pledge was announced today at an affiliated event in advance of the Global Climate Action Summit in San Francisco. Among the global beachhead markets targeted by the Pledge, transit buses are growing the fastest. There are more than 100,000 zero emission transit buses now in operation around the world.
Fifty years later, the USA is faced with a similar challenge, energy independency and climatic change. On December 16, 2010 the US DOE Energy Information Agency (EIA) published a report projecting that renewable energy will still only constitute 12 percent of the USA’s energy sources by 2035. mpg by 2016. in Connecticut.

Hydrogen has often been hailed as a fuel of the future, promising a clean and versatile energy source capable of decarbonizing multiple sectors. However, a closer look at the technical, economic, and infrastructure challenges associated with hydrogen reveals that these claims may be overstated. While hydrogen can indeed be used.
1 ] The average daily driving distance in the USA is 30 miles (48 km), so PHEVLERs are vehicles with at least 60 miles (97 km) of electric range. PHEVLERs [ 3 ] are a disruptive technology that will help revolutionize both the clean transportation and the clean stationary energy sectors of our economy. He has a Ph.D.
For close to twenty years, it’s been clear that electrifying everything is a key climate change wedge. Jacobson’s work in the USA and then internationally with his 100% Renewables by 2050 modeling laid much of the groundwork for this.

To meet our growing energy needs and prevent the worst consequences of climate change, we need to increase our supply of nuclear power and today’s announcement helps to move us down that path. That is why we need comprehensive energy and climate legislation to create a system of incentives to make clean energy profitable.
The narrative that Americans and many Europeans share about China and themselves is not aligned with observable reality, and the USA is in significant danger of economic decline even as the world improves.

Aside from the direct climate and public health benefits of more electric vehicles replacing gas- and diesel-fueled cars, the uplifting thing about this is that it shows one thing super […].
The “smart” buoys, based on integrated patented hydrodynamics, electronics, energy conversion and computer control systems, capture and convert energy from the natural rising and falling of waves into low-cost, clean electricity. The generated power is transferred ashore via an underwater power transmission cable. Earlier post.).

By leveraging an already existing eco-system and infrastructure, ClearFlame’s solution not only gets us to our climate goals faster, but can do so less expensively—saving fleets money, without any green premium. This is critical, particularly in industries like heavy-duty transportation. Vander Haag’s, Inc.,
