We report preliminary observations on the vertical distributions of methane and carbon dioxide in Chaffey Reservoir (Tamworth, NSW) and Dartmouth Reservoir, two temperate zone reservoirs located in southeastern Australia. In Chaffey, the diffusive methane flux from the hypolimnion to the epilimni...
CANBERRA, March 1 (Xinhua) -- Australia's greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise despite a significant reduction in those from electricity. A Department of Environment and Energy report released on Thursday evening said that total emissions rose nearly 1 percent, or 4.6 million tonnes, to 536 ...
An Australian National University (ANU) report released on Thursday found that Australia had spent 11 times the global average on renewable power, and that its greenhouse gas emissions could start to fall from next year following the surge in wind and solar power investment. According to the ANU...
The model uses GaBi 8.1 platforms and shows relationships between building's energy consumption, and greenhouse-gas emissions released during the building lifetime. This paper provides insight into life-cycle greenhouse-gas emissions assessment for several typical commercial building fabrics in Australia. ...
Australia says the world needs to do more to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
Demand for vehicles with low greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions has led automakers to develop various types of electric vehicles, which have low or no tailpipe emissions. The use of these cars in countries like Australia, where electricity generation is GHG intensive, results in relatively high emissi...
Every year since 1990, the Australian Federal Government has estimated national greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions to meet Australias reporting commitments under the United National Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The National Greenhouse Gas Inventory (NGGI) methodology used to estimate...

Australia's NGERS, established in 2007, requires corporations to report their greenhouse gas emissions, energy production and energy consumption. Its Emissions and Energy Reporting System (EERS) is used to collect the data, including information on various greenhouse gases and energy metrics, facility...
Kelly O'Shanassy, chief executive of the Australian Conservation Foundation, said that emissions rising in a country as wealthy as Australia was "embarrassing." "This latest pollution scorecard casts extreme doubt over the government's claim that Australia will meet our 2030 emissions reduction target...
