3) How do the city size, structure of economic sectors, and scale of the economy affect the total CO2emissions and its efficiency in urban areas? For example, do large cities tend to have lower CO2emissions per capita or verse versa? Results from this study can enhance the understanding of...
Exposure to CO2 can produce a variety of health effects. These may includeheadaches, dizziness, restlessness, a tingling or pins or needles feeling, difficulty breathing, sweating, tiredness, increased heart rate, elevated blood pressure, coma, asphyxia, and convulsions. What does carbon dioxide ha...
Switching to a diet lower in red meat has the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Using a unique time series of daily sales data from three German university canteens from 2017 to 2019, we analyse the effects of a monthly Veggie Day in a food-away-from-home context. We find tha...
It affects our health, ability to grow food, housing, safety and work. Some of us are already more vulnerable to climate impacts, such as people living in small island developing States. Conditions like sea-level rise and saltwater intrusion have advanced to the point where whole communities ...

This has significantly lower carbon emissions than conventional leather, but, that does not mean it is friendlier than other materials out there. Flyknit is a material partly made from recycled plastic bottles diverted from landfill. Without going into the performance benefits of Flyknit, it is a ...
Manufacturers can also choose to offset emissions that may be challenging to cut at this particular time. Carbon offsetting cancels out the impact of some CO2 emissions, but it should only be used as a stop gap and cannot fully replace decarbonising a process. ...
Environmental deprivation, combined with rising greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, has become a great concern for humanity, as these factors significantly impact human health and economic development. Environmental pollution has become a worldwide problem [1]. The United Nations (UN) in 2020 warned abou...
The energy required to produce denim contributes to greenhouse gas emissions. The fashion industry, including denim production, is a major contributor to global carbon emissions. Upcycling denim helps to lower these emissions by decreasing the demand for energy-intensive manufacturing processes. ...
To reduce CO2 emissions, y’know. Also gas stoves, gas fireplaces, gas furnaces. Oh, and burning wood too. They’re going to ban that. So then you pay the electric company or you freeze. Or, if there’s another major ice storm as there was a few years ago, you just f-ing ...
