A comprehensive overview of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of from different sectors across the globe is provide in this chapter. Particular attention is given to agriculture, forestry, and other land use (AFOLU). Since agricultural activities (cultivation of crops, management activities and rearing ...
Transportation and Energy, Overview David L.Greene, inEncyclopedia of Energy, 2004 2Societal Concerns Consumption ofpetroleum fuelshas also brought problems: (1) air pollution from vehicle exhausts is harmful to human health to animals and to vegetation; (2) greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, mostly...
Technologies exist that effectively reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Most are renewable energy options (solar, wind, biomass, and hydrogen-based power, among others), which generally do not produce a net change in greenhouse gases. Another effective and proven, but highly unpopular and nonrenewable ...
