Carbon dioxide as an air pollutant

Environment, Law, and History

The abstract: In the late 1960s, New Zealand and the United States collaborated to establish a southern hemispheric carbon dioxide (CO2) monitoring station on New Zealand’s coastal cliffs. The New Zealand CO2 Project, as it came to be known, is an underappreciated landmark in the history of environmental monitoring.

Carnegie Museum Of Natural History: We Get Questions - Climate Change, Hope And Action

PA Environment Daily

The student’s question during a high school environmental science class in March left me scrambling to deliver a clear and honest answer. The frightful phenomenon is on a scale proportional to and correlated with the climate altering changes in Earth’s atmosphere. Tell me,” she added for emphasis, “because I really want to know.”

Carbon removal using ‘blue carbon’ habitats “uncertain and unreliable”

Frontiers

The findings of their review, published today in the journal Frontiers in Climate , identify seven reasons why carbon accounting for coastal ecosystems is not only extremely challenging but risky. The expected climate benefits from blue carbon ecosystem restoration may be achieved, yet it seems more likely they will fall seriously short.

A Dangerous Disruption

Legal Planet

The “for one year” part is crucial: stratospheric aerosols stay in the atmosphere roughly a year, so one gram offsets the heating effect of one ton only for the first year after the ton is emitted. SAI can offset the effects of greenhouse gases on global-average temperature, but not their total climatic and environmental effects.

Another Historic Climate Court Ruling in the Netherlands

Legal Planet

Now the same district court has gone further, again in favor of environmental groups but now against Royal Dutch Shell (“Shell”) , the world’s largest non-state-owned fossil fuel company. C with limited or no overshoot project the use of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) on the order of 100–1000 GtCO2 over the 21st century.
