A Global Breakdown of Greenhouse Gas Emissions by Sector In a few decades, greenhouse gases (GHGs)—chiefly in the form of CO₂ emissions—have risen at unprecedented rates as a result of global growth and resource consumption. To uncover the major sectors where these emissions originate, this...
in contrast to the layers where oxygen was available, leftover carbon compounds in the sediment samples where sulfur had been used for respiration were mostly of the sort that requires more energy to degrade than would be liberated through the degradation itself. Of no use, ...
Farming will enable the return of vast areas of land and se a to nature, greatly reducing carbon emissions(排放物). It means an end to the employment of animals, a stop to overfishing, and a dramatic reduction in cutting down forests and the use of pesticides(杀虫剂). It is the best ...
Discharges can also occur on the surface of the material. At the surface of insulators, an erosion phenomenon similar to the cavity process can take place. This erosion can be accompanied by an accumulation of carbon on the surface creating a conductive area (tracking). Moisture accumulation in...
Washington is among a coalition of 22 U.S. states and seven local governments that sued the Trump administration over its decision to relax restrictions on coal-fired power plants. However, the efforts at the country's local levels to reduce carbon emissions were sometimes cracked down. On Sept...
Through this approach, each country's share of responsibility for global emissions in excess of the planetary boundary was calculated. Findings: As of 2015, the USA was responsible for 40% of excess global CO2 emissions. The European Union (EU-28) was responsible for 29%. The G8 nations (...
diamond is formed deep below Earth's surface under immense pressure and heat, but since it is essentially just carbon—of which there is an abundance of—artificially synthesized diamond can be made in weeks rather than billions of years, while also producing 100 times less carbon emissions. ...
Forests, wetlands and grasslands, often referred to as “nature-based climate solutions,” can capture and store carbon and help in mitigation by reducing the impact of flooding, wildfires or other disasters, Ms. Courtois said. She’s also encouraged by growing global recognition of how IPCAs ...

Using LIBS for the analysis of archaeological and geological marine mollusc shells is a growing research area that relies on customised instrumentation and specific workflows that can accommodate the variety and precision of the required sampling parameters. However, the increased efficiency offered by LIB...
