Weifang Port’s “zero-carbon” certification was primarily achieved by transitioning away from fossil fuel use, according to China Electric Power News (CEPN). It has built a wind power system to provide green energy for its operations and deployed hydrogen-powered vehicles to replace fossil-fuel-powered trucks.

Ontario has a large potential supply of wind and solar energy that could be developed to help phase-out dirty gas plants. It estimated that we would need an additional 843 MW of solar and an additional 4,545 MW of wind capacity (along with a basket of other sources) to ensure the province’s energy needs are met. .

In the case of climate change, there is unequal access to the knowledge, technology, and finances that would help to combat it. Keeping with the topic of climate change, one part of the inequality is evident and it’s the discussion about carbon debt. In other words, most people are lowering their carbon emissions.
