21. Invites the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change to provide a special report in 2018 on the impacts of global warming of 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels and related global greenhouse gas emission pathways; This has prompted a number of academic institutions and climate scientists to ...

greenhouse gasmanurenitrous oxideorganicsoilsyntheticMost national GHG inventories estimating direct N 2 O emissions from managed soils rely on a default Tier 1 emission factor (EF 1 ) amounting to 1% of nitrogen inputs. Recent research has, however, demonstrated the potential for refining the EF ...
It seems the “global warming potential” factor of 21 (quoted online as between 15 and 30 – so much for “settled science”) derives from the assumption that CO2 absorption is almost saturated., so any additional absorption occurs on the “shoulders” of the curve...
Javier’s comment –“….accepting the IPCC assumption that there are no other natural contributions to climate change than those already identified, i.e., natural forcing has contributed net zero to climate change since 1850.” Concurring with Javier – This is one of the illogical claims ev...
it's cheaper to replace old power plants with renewables. But in the current market, it's usually cheaper for an electric utility to replace them with new coal plants (or natural gas). Which is why so many of us (including most economists) are pushing for a price on carbon emissions. ...
Some simple analyses of CO2 changes have used the concept of a single characteristic time-scale for this gas. Such analyses are of limited value because a single time-scale cannot capture the behaviour of CO2 under different emission scenarios [The IPCC author is a moron, confus...
Per Hansen: "We have considered cases ranging frombusiness as usual, which isscenario A, to draconian emission cuts, scenario C, which would totally eliminate net trace gas growth byyear 2000." In a peer-reviewedarticlesupporting his testimony, he stated that the 1970s and 1980s had an appr...
