It’s 20 years since we started blogging on climate here on RealClimate (December 10, 2004). There is one graph that perhaps tells the story of what has happened since 2004, and it’s the Keeling curve shown in the figure below. Another thing I didn’t anticipate in 2004 was efforts such as the World Weather Attribution (WWA).
A brief history of the land carbon sink Every year, globally, land-based ecosystems remove roughly 30% of human emissions from the atmosphere, slowing both the accumulation of atmospheric CO2 and increases in global temperature.
Last week in Illinois, a carbon capture project was found to be leaking. Carbon capture is the process of capturing carbondioxide (CO 2 ) from where it is being released, such as a power plant or refinery. Though most of the carbon being captured is used to pump out more oil, small amounts are being stored underground.
We have direct AMOC measurements only since 2004, a time span too short for this type of study. Now that the dust has settled, here some thoughts on the criticisms that have been raised about this study. I’ve seen two main arguments there. Do the data used really describe changes in AMOC? 2018 ( PDF ; I’m a coauthor on that paper).
The AFIG Program funds projects that replace older gasoline- or diesel-fueled vehicles with cleaner fuel vehicles that helps reduce emissions of carbon monoxide, particulate matter, volatile organic compounds, nitrogen oxides, and carbondioxide, a principal greenhouse gas.

To put this in perspective, Kees van der Leun tweeted last month, ” Annual global solar PV market hit the 1 GW mark in 2004. So, if our answers to climate change and air pollution are growing, with even global coal consumption peaking, why is there still more and more carbondioxide in our atmosphere?
Since 2004, ARRI has reforested thousands of acres of reclaimed coal mined land throughout Appalachia to restore the areas to their natural appearance while gaining the many benefits the newly planted trees seedlings will provide, such as removing carbondioxide from the air and helping to conserve water resources.
Since 2004, SmartWay Partners have avoided emitting more than 143 million metric tons of carbondioxide (CO2,), 2.7 million tons of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and 112,000 tons of particulate matter (PM), while saving $44.8
It is also a major source of carbondioxide; contributing around eight per cent of the worlds CO2 emissions. Geosynthetic Cementitious Composite Mats (GCCMs) were developed by two university students, Peter Brewin and William Crawford in 2004. Concrete and CO2.
By reducing nitrogen oxide, carbon monoxide, particulate matter, carbondioxide, and other pollutants from the transportation sector, we make the air quality healthier in our communities, while helping to slow down climate change and its impacts,” Ziadeh added.
Environmental groups had identified five categories of new information since the 2004 preparation of an EIS that they contended warranted supplemental review under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The plaintiff labeled this scheme the “Climate Alarmism Enterprise.”
Studies show it may be possible through the adoption of improved farming practices which take carbondioxide out of the atmosphere and store it in the soil. By the time Barry took over the farm in 2004, soils were dusty and depleted. Soil tests indicated that carbon levels were a low 0.4%. “It Catena , 47 (2), 133-149.
Through the IRA, there are also many opportunities for climate change mitigation through cleaner vehicles, homes that are more energy efficient, and reductions in greenhouse gases like carbondioxide and methane. DEP’s work has been guided, in part, by an Environmental Justice Policy adopted in 2004.
Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, with a global warming potential of approximately 28 times greater than carbondioxide over a 100-year time horizon (IPCC, 2021). “Land-use change and carbon emissions in the Brazilian Amazon.” Cambridge University Press. Macedo, M. ” Global Change Biology , 18(7), 2272-2284.
The son of Ronald Wise said the wells have not been pumpted since 2004. Ronald Wise - Violations: 4 Abandoned Conventional Wells March 12, 2025 notices of violation sent to the owner of record for the Vanderzer 2, 3, 5 and Ron Wise 1 conventional wells in Summit Township, Butler County were returned in the mail.

752 (2004), and concluded that “in light of the informational role served by MEPA review, the line that must be drawn requires a ‘reasonably close causal relationship’ between the environmental effect and the alleged cause.” The Minnesota Supreme Court adopted the U.S. Public Citizen , 541 U.S.
