The IEEE Board of Directors formed an ad hoc committee on climate change in February to coordinate its response to the global threat. Rahman is a professor of electrical and computer engineering at Virginia Tech. Why should IEEE be involved in combating climate change? Why should members care about climate change?

In states (or countries ) with a high proportion of coal-generated electricity, the miles needed to break-even climb more. Behavioral change is hard How willing are people to break their car dependency and other energy-related behaviors to address climate change? The answer is perhaps some, but maybe not too much.

A team of students from the Fulton Schools of Engineering at Arizona State University is helping to improve the air quality for nomadic communities in Mongolia. The Project Koyash team at ASU designed a solar-powered air-filtration system that autonomously cleans polluted air in less than an hour.

This assessment provides an evaluation of black-carbon climate forcing that is comprehensive in its inclusion of all known and relevant processes and that is quantitative in providing best estimates and uncertainties of the main forcing terms: direct solar absorption, influence on liquid, mixed-phase, and ice clouds, and deposition on snow and ice.

When we turn up the heat in our homes and workplaces, we must balance our personal need for warmth with the global impact of burning fossil fuels like oil, gas, coal, and biomass. Anthropogenic climate change confronts humanity with a challenge: How can we keep warm now as we try to prevent our world from overheating in the future?

Jacobson, professor of civil and environmental engineering at Stanford University, suggests that carbon capture technologies are inefficient and increase air pollution. Upstream emissions are emissions, including from leaks and combustion, from mining and transporting a fuel such as coal or natural gas.). A study by Mark Z.

This article shows that including offsets in climate change legislation would likely make an emissions program more cost-effective by: (a) providing an incentive for non-regulated sources to generate emission reductions; and (b) expanding emission compliance opportunities for regulated entities. Assuming the offset is legitimate—i.e.,
