In advance of the conference, organizers have requested that countries submit Intended Nationally Determined Contributions—pledges to reduce greenhouse gasemissions, by an amount that should be "fair and ambitious," in order to limitglobal warmingto no more than 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial...
saw the fastest growth of the major sectors with a year-on-year rise of 12.6%.Nuclear is regarded as a zero-carbon energy source because it doesn’t emit greenhouse gases. Natural gas remained the biggest source of electricity in the country, contributing a record-breaking 3...
Limiting warming to close to 1.5°C or even 2°C will be beyond reach in the next decades unless there are immediate, rapid and large-scale reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, the IPCC said, underscoring the severity of the prognosis for coral reefs and other ...
Releasing their platform late in the campaign on Friday, Andrew Scheer’s Conservatives have pledged to scrap the carbon tax, and instead bring in standards for major emitters. Companies will be required to invest “a set amount” for every excess tonne of greenhouse gas ...

(2) The Greenhouse Gas and Air Pollution Interactions and Synergies for Asia scenario for Evaluating the Climate and Air Quality Impacts of Short-Lived Pollutants version CLEv5a (hereafter, referred to as GAINS); this model provides data on emissions and pollutants by country, with data available...
Our planet’s temperature has increased as a result of greenhouse gas emissions brought on by human activity, particularly the release of carbon dioxide gas from the burning of fossil fuels. This has had an influence on the entire ecosystem [1,2,3,4]. Wide-ranging effects of climate change...
The OBPS is the part of the federal carbon pricing regime that puts a price on pollution from large industrial emitters — a price separate from the costs consumers bear when buying fossil fuels like oil, gas, diesel and pr...
