One of them, Low Emission Zones (LEZs), limits access within a defined perimeter, usually the city center, to the least polluting vehicles. This traffic restriction tool has been adopted since the end of the 1990s in more than 210 European cities, including many Italian and German cities, ...

Image Courtesy of The living The construction industry's future will undoubtedly include "carbon reduction" as a mandatory task. Aside from locally sourced, virgin materials, an increasing number...
On April 5, 2022, it was announced by HeidelbergCement and Felleskjøpet AGRI that ENOVA (Norwegian government enterprise owned by the Ministry of Climate and Environment) had provided funding support for the zero-emission cargo ship, the With Orca. Editions 20 & 37 of Low Carbon Pulse have...
These restrictions were imposed in addition to the existing 2003 London Congestion Charge and the 2008 Low Emission Zone. Moreover, since the ULEZ extended the payment scheme to weekends, we also analyse the differential impact of these two policies during weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Finally,...
physicists Hagen and Rubens found that the heat emission from bulk metals described by their emissivity,ε, correlates strongly with their conductivity,σ, i.e., with the concentration of free electrons [11]. Based on the Drude model, they derived a formula to connect conductivityσand emissivity...
Both scenarios are intended to achieve the Stabilisation Goal under the Paris Agreement, rather than the Stretch Goal (noting that the IEA Roadmap is based on achieving the Stretch Goal). The report on reports for July will include a short form summaries of each report. India to introduce ...
Second, in all coastal arche- types except Resource-Rich Cities, high adaptation under a high emission scenario (RCP8.5) cannot reduce risks down to a level that would be achievable in a low emission scenario (RCP2.6) without any substantial additional adaptation efforts compared to today. In ...
