Atmosphere Carbon Emissions Deforestation

As the atmosphere continues to warm, severe weather events have gone from occasionally urgent to relentless assault. . The root cause of the issue is global climate change, which can only be addressed by rapidly curbing carbon emissions. On the Au Sable, the threat is a slow burn.

Our response to climate change is a balancing act: we work to reduce carbon emissions on the one hand and to enhance nature’s ability to absorb carbon on the other. Cocoa happens to grow best on forested mountainsides, and it has been a driver of deforestation in Peru, Ghana, Indonesia and a handful of other places.

Methane is a greenhouse gas that has more heat-trapping power than CO2, although it also clears out of the atmosphere much faster than does CO2. Controlling the methane emissions, some of it from wasteful accidental release at natural gas wells, is critical for controlling global warming. The question now is the rest of the deal.

This is a game-changing move as peaker plants and even baseload ones will become more and more irrelevant, decreasing carbon emissions. 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 carbon dioxide in our atmosphere?

Britain is working towards the long-term goal of reaching net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. This small handful of countries is part of an elite club, the Alliance of Carbon-Negative Countries. If we were to imagine a set of scales, on side A we have all the carbon emitted by energy, industry, transport, etc.

The social cost of carbon is an economic tool used to determine how much the cost is, in dollars, of emitting another ton of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. As carbon dioxide builds up in the atmosphere, it also traps heat surrounding the planet. The damage this heat creates is SCC.

Satellites, for example, are used in meteorology to track weather systems and to monitor atmospheric fronts to predict what the weather will do next. Known as ENSO, they are opposite effects of the same process and are defined as an oscillation (a variation in magnitude) between the temperature of the atmosphere and the ocean.
