present evidence that grazing decreases emissions from semi-arid grasslands that experience soil freeze-thaw cycles during the spring season. When these types of grasslands are not grazed, most of the annual emissions usually occur during the spring, when subsurfa...
Crude death rate is used to represent health status and CO2emissions from manufacturing industries and construction, and nitrous oxide emissions are considered to be indicators of industrial pollution. Using annual data of 60 years (1960–2019), an unbalanced panel data estimation method is followed...
As the most used fabric in the textile industry, polyester's production results in the emissions of heavy metals, greenhouse gases and nitrous oxide. Besides, the fashion industry is the second biggest consumer and pollu-ter of water. About 1 pair of jeans can use up to 2,000 gallons of ...
Land adaptations, such as deforestation on farms, nitrous oxide from the use of synthetic fertilizers, and methane from livestock and rice production, are the main basis for agricultural emissions11. Predictably, the agricultural sector has the highest greenhouse gas emissions in countries with large ...
One of the main causes is the increase in greenhouse gas emissions, such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide. These gases trap heat in the atmosphere and cause the Earth's temperature to rise. The effects of global warming are far-reaching. Rising sea levels threaten coastal areas...
Fig. 2: Exemplary greenhouse gas emissions in gCO2eq from the main dishes on a Regular Thursday, a No-beef Thursday, and a Veggie Thursday, by site and customer group. The emissions are calculated for exemplary dishes and the propensity to choose the respective dish of the customers at the...
that 134 kg estimate was multiplied with both time-spent-in-air and a factor of 2.7 to account for “radiative forcing,” which includes other harmful emissions such as nitrous oxide (2.7 was taken from Mark Lynas’ bookCarbon Counter). That number was then...
What is the gas that cows emit mostly through burping that is one of the leading causes of greenhouse gas emissions? A. carbon dioxide B. methane C. halons D. nitrous oxide E. CFC's The second most abundant gas in the atmosphere is. When rounded to the nearest whole ...
nitrous oxide from the use of synthetic fertilizers, and methane from livestock and rice production, are the main basis for agricultural emissions11. Predictably, the agricultural sector has the highest greenhouse gas emissions in countries with large populations. World second most populous country, Ind...
Broadly, there are two different sides to agriculture’s impact on climate change, Brodt said. “There is the emissions side that comes partly from fossil fuel use and partly from things like nitrous oxide and methane emissions,” she said. “The other side is looking at the soil globally ...
