Cyclones can play a role in negative emissions processes
Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (so called BECCS) is the process of using biomass, such as trees, crops, or residues, for energy production through thermal decomposition processes such as combustion, pyrolysis and gasification, while capturing the carbon in that biomass before it is released back into the atmosphere. BECCS is assumed to have a prominent role in many integrated ...

Axion: ‘Plastic recycling does work’
Recycling end-of-life plastic is still the best route for recovering this versatile and long-life material, according to resource recovery specialist Axion. The company argues that processing the material is the best way to preserve valuable resources and reduce negative environmental impact. “Plastic recycling does work. Littering plastics has a negative effect on the environment so ...

New DNV report: Pathway to Net Zero Emissions
A feasible path to limit planetary warming to 1.5°C requires certain countries and sectors to go below net zero and to do so well before the middle of the century, according to new analysis from DNV -- the authors of the Energy Transition Outlook. Highlights: DNV's pathway to net zero says North America and Europe must be carbon neutral by 2042, whereas Indian Subcontinent is set to be a net ...

GHG and carbon emissions and their role in limiting warming to 1.5°C
With the latest IPCC report, the much anticipated COP26 conference and almost constant news reports on the subject, climate change and the reduction of carbon now seem to be at the centre of most discussions. As our attention is turned towards the ways businesses can act now to limit warming to 1.5°C, some terms used can lead to confusion. This blog discusses the difference between terms ...

Climate Change Widespread, Rapid, and Intensifying - IPCC Report
Scientists are observing changes in the Earth's climate in every region and across the whole climate system, according to the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Report, released today. Many of the changes observed in the climate are unprecedented in thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of years, and some of the changes already set in motion-such as continued sea level ...

Pathway to global climate catastrophe is clear
Here is a set of circumstances that could trigger global climate catastrophe. The Greenland ice sheet could begin a process of irreversible melting. As it does, greater quantities of fresh water would flood into the Arctic Ocean, to further slow the already slowing Atlantic meridional overturning circulation, that great flow of water sometimes called the Gulf Stream that distributes warmth from ...

Gasera Launches a New Greenhouse Gas Analyzer
Our new portable product, GASERA ONE GHG greenhouse gas analyzer offers a selective, reliable and simultaneous analysis of methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) greenhouse gas emissions with highly accurate low-ppb detection limits. Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions especially methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) play a significant role in the global warming and climate change. Methane (CH4) has ...

Carbon offsets
Harp BioDigesters reduce and eliminate harmful GHG emissions by limiting the oxidation of carbon during our proprietary waste conversion process, and by sequestering the carbon in the resulting soil product(s). We not only reduce waste volume and sequester carbon, but we also reduce waste transportation and the overall real estate area needed for landfills (or compost areas). We can thus provide ...
