greenhouse

A study by the University of Manchester calculated the emissions of CO2—the main greenhouse gas responsible for climate change—at every stage of microwaves, from manufacture to waste disposal.

The result would be higher emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases.

Pricing carbon proves the most economical way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Nations from around the world have gathered in Paris for the United Nations Climate Change Conference, COP 21, with the goal of a universal and potentially legally-binding agreement on reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Higher fossil fuel prices prove to be conducive to innovation and application of cleaner technologyIf fossil fuel prices remain low for a long time, it may lead to higher emissions of greenhouse gases.

Greenhouse gas emissions, if not properly dealt with, will pose endless risks for mankind.

Failure to address comprehensively the problem of greenhouse gas emissions, however, exposes all generations, present and future, to incalculable risks.

Direct subsidies to research and development have been adopted by some governments but are a poor substitute for a carbon price: they do only part of the job, leaving in place market incentives to over-use fossil fuels and thereby add to the stock of atmospheric greenhouse gases without regard to the collateral costs.

As countries become richer, they produce more greenhouse gases; and the impact of those gases will fall primarily in poor parts of the world.

As a country's wealth grows, so do its greenhouse gas emissions.

They are free from the greenhouse effects affecting forced riders.

It will effectively reduce greenhouse emissions worldwide.

Fewer than 4% of countries are responsible for more than half of the world's greenhouse gas emissions.

Developed nations such as Australia, the United States, Canada, and European countries are essentially climate free-riders: causing the majority of the problems through high greenhouse gas emissions, while incurring few of the costs such as climate change's impact on food and water.

Left alone, it was assumed, the world's rain forests would not only flourish but might even rescue us from disaster by absorbing the excess carbon dioxide and other planet-warming greenhouse gases.

billion metric tons of carbon into the atmosphere each year - making forests the leading source of greenhouse gases

More than paradise lost, a perishing rain forest could trigger a domino effect - sending winds and rains kilometers off course and loading the skies with even greater levels of greenhouse gases - that will be felt far beyond the Amazon basin.

Each burning season in the Amazon, fires deliberately set by frontier settlers and developers hurl up almost half a billion metric tons of carbon a year, placing Brazil among the top five contributors to greenhouse gases in the world

The author argues that the rising carbon levels in rain forests may turn them into a major source of greenhouse gases.

turn them into a major source of greenhouse gases

What makes Brazil one of the world's top five contributors to greenhouse gases?

In face of global warming, much effort has been focused on reducing greenhouse gas emissions through a variety of strategies.

Methane has become the chief source of greenhouse gas.

And insect farming also produces far fewer greenhouse gases.

But its surface has been cooked and dried by an ocean of carbon dioxide, trapped in the burning death grip of a runaway greenhouse effect.

Developed nations such as Australia, the United States, Canada, and European countries are essentially climate "free-riders": causing the majority of the problems through high greenhouse gas emissions, while incurring few of the costs such as climate chan

Fewer than 4% of countries are responsible for more than half of the world's greenhouse gas emissions.

Just like medical researchers use rats to test ideas for human medical treatments, botanists use plants that are relatively easy to grow in a lab or greenhouse setting to test their ideas for related species.

Sommerkorn says a plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions blamed for global warming needs to come out of the Copenhagen Climate Change Summit in December.

According to the analysis of Babbitt's team, old desktop monitors and box TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption and contribution to greenhouse gas emissions more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007 window.

Environmental protection agency notes that most waste is dangerous in that "the production, distribution, and use of products — as well as management of the resulting waste — all result in greenhouse gas release".

In southern Spain the sudden increase of greenhouses which reflect light back to space has changed the warming trend locally, and actually cooled the region.

The solar still works by creating a greenhouse under the plastic.

While spain as a whole is heating up quickly, temperatures near the greenhouses have decreased.

Over the past decade, the focus has been on climate change——how the warming of the Earth from greenhouse gases is leading to conditions that worsen fires.
