Researchers suggest that air quality tests need simplifying to help reduce dangerous emissions

Green Car Congress

DECEMBER 26, 2019

New methods of testing and simulating air quality should be considered in order to help policy makers have a more accurate understanding of how emissions affect air pollution levels, new research suggests. We consider this to be a “bottom-up” approach,” says Stockwell. Stockwell, Emily Saunders, Wendy S. Goliff & Rosa M.

Clueless ministers are scrambling to shore up a key part of the country’s net zero carbon strategy after the findings in a peer-reviewed study suggested that even hydrogen produced using allegedly low-emission methods can be more polluting than gas or coal.

In contrast, project developers determine offset emission data by comparing the expected reduced, avoided, or sequestered GHG emissions against a projected, business-as-usual scenario (sometimes referred to as a counter-factual scenario). REFERENCES. CONCLUSION.

In general, biofuels made from organic waste are environmentally more benign than those from energy crops. Low-input cultivation of perennial plants, e.g. from short-rotation forestry and grasslands, may be an effective source of cellulosic biomass and provide environmental benefits (reduced pollution and lower greenhouse gas emissions).

FEBRUARY 15, 2021

We do not want to waste money on cheap, low-quality commodities. As a result, there has been an increase in air pollution. They utilise clean energy and help to reduce noise pollution. Almost all EV chargers on sale today in the UK are “Type 2” Type 2 refers to the type of plug that the charger uses.

Take, for example, the tens of thousands of fossil-fueled ships that chug across the ocean, spewing plumes of pollutants that contribute to acid rain, ozone depletion, respiratory ailments, and global warming. Sources of CCN include aerosols like dust, pollen, soot, and even bacteria, along with man-made pollution from factories and ships.

But when people talk about payback, they refer only to the net dollars to the driver. Dont PHEVs just shift pollution from gasoline cars to power plants? But its monumentally less pollution , even on the national (half-coal) grid. Please see our Plug-In Hybrids page Wheres the payback? Are the batteries recyclable?
