effects have inflicted a great harm on biodiversity particularly due to industrialization polluting and destroying ecosystems. Carbon dioxide emissions are those stemming from the burning of fossil fuels and the manufacture of cement. They include carbon dioxide produced during consumption of solid, liquid, and gas fuels and gas flaring. Carbon emissions go on without us realizing it. It comes down to the personal choices we make each day that dictates our carbon footprint. Today the average…

results seems very intuitive, some important concerns should be taken into account. First, emissions of earlier generations cannot be accurately measured and even though the damage is determined, to find the author responsible would be very difficult.…

In my opinion, the carbon tax is the best option for not only our nation, but for the whole world to reach our goal to lower our carbon emissions. The way the carbon tax method functions is that it proposes a tax to companies or businesses that produce oil, coal, and etc. These companies produce vast quantities of carbon, which is why they are the ones being taxed for polluting our atmosphere…

websites that offered a CO2 calculator for my house hold they all accounted for one year’s worth of CO2 emissions but they certain sites went more in-depth than others not just asking about my travel whether by car plane or public transit but also including electricity expenses food and other goods and services. The first website I dove into was nature.org which gave me an estimated yearly CO2 emission of 25 metric tons of CO2 which was the highest the second, website was carbonfootprint.com and…

of measurement and disclosure on carbon emissions and greenhouse gas related activities. In the end, the motivations to improve the quality of disclosure are analysed. Carbon accounting in UK and Russia: UK established the Climate Change Act in 2008 which is first legally binding target on climate change in the world. The aim of the act is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions at least 80% before 2050(Committee on…

species diversity and distribution, reduced access to food, and prevalence of diseases. Reduction in winter road season often required food and fuel to be flown into these regions, leading to increased cost of food and fuel. The Northern communities emission of CO2 is also high due to their reliance on diesel oil. Health Impacts Warming of the planet Earth caused by the excessive accumulation of greenhouse gases presents both environmental and health effects. Some of the adverse…

there would be a 900 million metric tons of greenhouse emissions that would be reduced. The standards set up in this policy surpassed the CAFE Law that was passed by Congress in 2007. That law only required for cars to have a 35 miles per gallon fuel economy standard in 2020. As mentioned earlier, cars and trucks contribute highly to the high level of toxins found in the air. This regulation was set forth in order to reduce those emissions found in the atmosphere. The National Fuel Efficiency…

recycling goods and materials, and shipping without causing too large of a carbon footprint (Senthil & Sakthi, 2015).. However, one must wonder what new technology that they are using are production techniques can cause such a large percentage of carbon emissions. The answer is due to the polluting factories that Apple is forced to use in order to remain competitive. The cheap labour garnered is essential to Apple maintaining their competitive advantage and therefore don’t invest in better…

healthy post-2020 climate change target in line with keeping global warming below 2°C that is ambitious and achievable. As part of New Zealand’s contribution to the universal climate change agreement, an economy-wide target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 40% by 2030 compared to 1990 levels. This type of commitment will require robust policies and coordinated action across the integrated sectors as determined by decisions of the UNFCCC Conference of the Parties on reporting…

The letter essentially asked for congress to back down and allow the Enviornmental protection agency to do what is needed of them to regulate global warming emissions to ensure a better future. The letter included what The Environmental Protection agency has done in the past to help combat pollution, and what they could do in the future to continue to further benefit the environment. Scientist urged congress to…
