The Arctic Ozone Layer Hole and its recent consequences

The Earth’s ocean is one of the purifiers of the atmospheric air. The waters of the Southern Ocean surrounding Antactica are a major sink for carbon emissions cleaning up more than 40% of the overall oceanic uptake of green house gases. However, the ozone layer hole above these are is singnificantly and constantly growing larger and recently scientists at a pressconference in Paris have discussed a quite negaive sceinario.

According to some of the biochemists at the conference, the ozone More

The cement industry decreases its carbon footprint

The WBCSD (World Business Council for Sustainable Development) has released figures with show that the world’s leading cement companies have managed to cut their CO2 emissions by as much as 14.3 percent between 1990 and 2008 and 3.8 percent between 2005 and 2008 with the help of Energy savings companies. Total CO2 emissions in absolute terms fell to 19 million tonnes from 2007 to 2008, to a figure of 577 million tonnes. The WBCSD attributes this reduction to a More

Carbon footprint of Coventry City Council is one of the worst in England, report suggests

It has been discovered that Coventry City Council’s carbon footprint index is one of the worst in England and the United Kingdom, according to new figures released by the government’s Department for Energy and Climate Change. The league table assesses areas such as lighting, transport, buildings and other council services for their level of carbon emissions.

The council has criticised the findings, pointing to other figures from 2008-2009 which showed that Coventry was placed at the bottom fifth of all More

The BedZED Project

With the icreasing climate awareness and the impact of carbon dioxyde studies, the architect Bill Dunster created a project of an environmentally-friendly populated area -the project includes 99 homes and almost 1500 square metres of working space situated near Hackbridge Station in London, United Kingdom. Populated with ordinary and working-class people, the project was aimed to explore the opportunity of decreasing the impact of the atmosphere pollution by the use of fossil fuels and coal in the production of energy.

Carbon Emissions and Car Transport

Since the industrial revolution cars have become the ultimate advantage for the working class of each society. Providing comfortable, self-esteemed and relatively fast transportation, automobiles are the necessity of every family and the main need for each business. However, the consequences they bear for our climate are far than negative -by the work of the fuel fed engines, the air gets more and more polluted with the increase of the car transportation rates thus providin circumstances for the development of More

Factory Production and The climate Change

The production rates the world maintains are constantly increasing due to the massive and growing consumption from the people worldwide. This is being quite often overlooked because the main priority of private and state factories is to produce as much as they possibly can with the idea of expanding the business and thus working for more income and money. That has been the situation in the 20th and the beginning of the 21st century despite the warnings producers have received More

CO2 emissions in China must not peak after 2020

The IEA (International Energy Agency) spoke on Thursday that China’s annual carbon emissions must peak by the year 2020 if efforts to tackle climate change can be met. Nobuo Tanaka, the director of the IEA arrived in Beijing to introduce a report on clean energy technologies and said that China’s contribution to decreasing greenhouse gas emissions was essential to achieving a 50 percent reduction in CO2 emissions by 2050. This figure is described as the ‘bare minimum’ target that would More

British Climate Change Minister has a new vision for the UK energy economy

Greg Barker, the coalition’s climate change minister today announced plans to launch a new government initiative aimed at helping Britons to be more self-sufficient with regards to their use of heating and power. He highlighted how simple steps to become more energy efficient and utilise their own energy will not only be beneficial for the environment, but could even help people financially. Saving money on heating and electricity bills and various o More

What Impacts Your Carbon Footprint

The harmful toxins and pollutants that are being released into the air are contributing to air pollution and are leading the increased level of global warming. Carbon footprints are the marks that have been left behind by the toxic carbon chemicals.

By making use of harmful pollutants like lead and carbon monoxide, we not only cause environmental damage, but also harm others too. These toxins react with our body and can cause harmful diseases.

The excessive consumption of power also More
