Biomass energy is a renewable and sustainable source of energy derived from organic matter and can be used to generate electricity and other forms of power. Common materials that can be used to develop biomass fuel include manure, forest debris, scrap lu
The agricultural sector should be aiming to close the loop: to reclassify waste as a resource. Turning trash into treasure is a step towards energy independence, an idea that is gaining momentum overseas. An energy-independent farm seeks to cater for its own energy needs, creating a self-susta...
Apparently, high-tech thinking has permeated the minds of (urban) environmentalists to such an extent that they view biomass as an inherently troublesome energy source – similar to fossil fuels. To be clear, critics are right to call out unsustainable practices in biomass production. However, t...
Energy consumption refers to the total amount of energy that is needed for a particular process or activity to get done. This gets measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh). It involves the consumption of gas, oil, diesel, electricity, and biomass. Overconsumption of energy leads to climate change and...
There is growing support and interest in postsecondary interdisciplinary environmental education, which integrates concepts and disciplines in addition to providing varied perspectives. There is a need to assess student learning in these programs as well
Whether residents felt involved in the decision to move and how long they had lived there also proved significant. 出自-2016年6月阅读原文 This danger can be avoided, according to computer science professor Stuart Russell, if we figure out how to turn human values into a programmable code. 出自...

With the intensification of the greenhouse effect, a series of natural phenomena, such as global warming, are gradually recognized; when the ambient temperature increases to the extent that it causes heat stress in plants, agricultural production will in
Healthcare systems are major emitters of greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change. The resulting climate crisis harms human and planetary health and increasingly impacts lives on Earth. Because of their status as high emitters and their social
fruit development, it causes an imbalance in energy transfer from the source to the sink, leading to dysplasia of the embryo structure and reducing the accumulation of nutrients such as sugars, proteins and trace elements. In turn, the quality worsens (Janni et al.2020; Seth and Sebastian2024...
