A new study by a team from Environmental Health & Engineering (EH&E) has found that greenhouse gas emissions from corn ethanol are 46% lower than those from gasoline—a decrease in emissions from the estimated 39% done by previous modeling. gCO 2 e/MJ, 26%), while land use change is a minor contributor (3.9 Scully et al.

of global CO2 emissions. This makes the sector pivotal in bringing down global emissions. Already, Maersk’s relative CO 2 emissions (CO 2 emissions per container moved) have been reduced by 46% (baseline 2007), approximately 9% more than the shipping industry average.

The findings are outlined in three new papers published in Earth System Science Data , Environmental Research Letters , and Nature Climate Change. over 2018 emissions. over 2018 emissions. Emissions cuts in wealthier nations must outpace increases in poorer countries where access to energy is still needed.

UCLA and Lawrence Livermore researchers have found that most climate models overestimate the increase in global precipitation due to climate change. Conveniently, this quantity can be measured from space, allowing the team to assess how well the models capture the physics controlling changes in global precipitation.

In climate models, if you simulate the world with sulfur emissions from shipping, and you simulate the world without these emissions, there is a sizable cooling effect from changes in the model clouds due to shipping. The calculated concentration of cloud droplets without emissions along the shipping route (yellow line).
