(The walls will be held up by steel, a more traditional building material that is also responsible for more carbon emissions.) But sustainability isn’t the only thing that sets the building apart. Every part of its design comes back to a 12-by-12-foot grid created by Neutral’s ...
Nations have delayed curbing their fossil-fuel emissions for so long that they can no longer stop global warming from intensifying over the next 30 years, though there is still a short window to prevent the most harrowing future, a major new United Nations scientific report has concluded. MIT ...
We believe that it is the sulfur trioxide gas (SO3) present in the emissions that reacts with water to form new H2SO4 particles. A modification of the sampling system was then tested. In this test the critical orifice was replaced by a stainless steel tube of about 1 meter long and ...
Emissions and air quality impacts of truck-to-rail freight modal shifts in the Midwestern United States. Using WIFE, we developed two modal shift scenarios: one focusing on intraregional freight movements within the Midwest and a second on through-freight ... E Bickford,T Holloway,A Karambelas...
Methods: We evaluated leaf-scale VOC emissions from eleven field-grown bioenergy poplar genotypes over multiple seasons as part of a large-scale field trial near Jefferson, Oregon, USA. In addition, we developed and deployed a field-based whole-canopy flux measurement system to quantify peak ...
In Wisconsin, more than two-dozen municipal wells exceed the EPA MCL for dissolved radium or gross alpha emissions [65], requiring them to solve the problem through water treatment options, source blending, or alternative water sources. In eastern Wisconsin, the Cambrian-Ordovician aquifer is ...
