From the 2009 levels, the transport sector was responsible for 21 percent of carbon emissions, according to LowCarbonEconomy.com. The overall decrease in emissions is said to be a result of two key factors: 1) a significant fall in energy consumption across all sectors and, 2) an increase ...
and the final decision is made by ranking the contributing factors based on the Euclidean distances from the ideal solutions. Using Eq. (22), the CE-I is obtained as 2.8036. In addition, a backward propagation analysis
The independent public body said the recommendation is based on the latest science, technological progress, and UK-specific factors and will be detailed in the CCC’s upcoming Seventh Carbon Budget report in February 2025. Professor Piers Forster, interim Chair of the Climate Change Committee, said...
Practical implications This study suggests that carbon emissions reduction strategies are in their infancy. Taken together, the impact of management commitment and leadership, climate change-related policies, structures, reward systems, training programmes and performance reporting are key factors in ...
Sean Gallen, Geosciences associate professor and senior author of the study, highlights that this research helps us better understand the factors that can drive earthquakes. Even though the study focused on investigating links between Earth's natural climate variability (an ice age) and seismic activi...
In order to gain a greater understanding of firms' 'environmental behaviour' this paper explores the factors that influence firms' emissions intensities an... Matthew,A.,Cole,... - 《Journal of Environmental Economics & Management》 被引量: 42发表: 2013年 Carbon dioxide emission prediction using...
Several factors have contributed tofalling UK carbon prices, including mild winter weather and reduced power demand, as well as a surplus of carbon allowances on the market. While prices have recovered marginally from the record lows, they remain markedly belowcarbon prices on the EU ETS. The ...
External factors such as global energy markets and geopolitics will also affect certain policies. The rapid increase in energy prices in 2022 forced many governments to revisit their targets and policies given social and economic pressure. When it comes to energy, public opinion influences government ...
Consumer, legal, and technological factors influence the design, performance, and emissions of light-duty vehicles (LDVs). This work examines how design choices made by manufacturers for the UK market result in emissions and performance of vehicles throughout the past decade (20012011). LDV fuel ...
The COVID-19 lockdown has led to reduced pollution and emissions in the UK and around the world, providing a clear indication of how cars affect air quality and carbon emissions. But such a change is only temporary—millions ...
