Harrison MT, Jackson T, Cullen BR, Rawnsley RP, Ho C, Cummins L, Eckard RJ (2014b) Increasing ewe genetic fecundity improves whole-farm production and reduces greenhouse gas emissions intensities: 1. Sheep production and emissions intensities. Agricultural Systems 131, 23-33. doi:10.1016/j.ag...
Carbon and nitrogen losses from degraded wetlands and methane emissions from flooded wetlands are both important sources of greenhouse gas emissions. However, the net-exchange dependence on hydrothermal conditions and wetland integrity remains unclear. U
Paper recycling saves energy, and reduces greenhouse gas emissions. 1 Actually, when you think about it, paper has been a recycled product from the very beginning. For the first 1,800 years or so that paper existed, it was always made from discarded materials.2 Recycling paper conserves ...
In the North China Plain—the case study area, traditional cereal monoculture (such as wheat–maize double-cropping, i.e., two cereal crops per year) requires inputs of synthetic agrichemicals and irrigation in food production, causing large greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions; in contrast, rotation...
Greenhouse gasWoodfuelLife cycle assessmentBiochar produced in cookstoves has the potential to contribute to negative carbon emissions through sequestration of biomass carbon while also providing other benefits for sustainable development, including provision of clean renewable energy and increased yields in ...
of greenhouse gas emissions avoided (all else equal) – roughly similar to the annual GHG emissions of a country such as Burundi (World Bank, 2021). This is a considerable net positive climate impact of mechanizing production of one crop in one country that, as shown above, can also go ...
I’m proud to say we reduced greenhouse gas-emissions per car sold by 6%.” The 2021 report revisits another ground-breaking year that saw the launch of the Polestar 0 project – Polestar’s moonshot goal to create a truly climate-neutral car by 2030 – and the announcement of the first...
Nearly a quarter (22%) reduction in greenhouse gas emissions year-over-year and third-party assurance of environmental data and methodology. Achieved Silver Rating from EcoVadis, progressing from Bronze Rating in just one year. This establishes Genesys in the top 25% of companies evaluated by the...
Across both growing seasons, the highest grain yield (GY) and nitrogen agronomic efficiency (NAE) were observed in N210.Considering both grain yield (GY) and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, nitrogen application under water-saving irrigation in the North China Plain should not exceed 210 kg ha ...
BEIJING, Nov. 21 (Xinhua) -- The greenhouse gas emissions from China's rice fields have been reduced by 70 percent over the past five decades, according to a recent Chinese study. China's rice agriculture, a primary source of greenhouse gas emissions, has experienced great changes in the ...
