How much greenhouse gas is produced by cars? How much does agriculture contribute to greenhouse gas emissions? How much of the greenhouse gases are emitted per year? How much does the greenhouse effect raise temperatures on Earth? How does intensive farming cause high emission of greenhouse gases...
I am lucky to have been surrounded by many generous people throughout my life. As I wrote in my memoir Source Code, my parents were my first and biggest influences. My mom introduced me to the idea of giving back. She was a big believer in the idea of “to whom much is given much...

Because CO2 is emitted in proportion to the amount of fuel consumed, the excellent thermal efficiency that diesel engines display results in lower CO2 generation. Though the use of the diesel engine in Japan is centered mainly on industrial applications, such as with agricultural and construction ...
