Greenhouse gas emissions

According to a study published in ‘Environmental Sciences’, agricultural and forestry sectors play a significant role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, if both governments and individuals don’t start to take climate warnings seriously, global warming could soon become twice as lethal. Notably, researchers from across 165 countries reviewed over 18,000 scientific papers on topics covering restructuring fossil fuel use to … read-more

A new study shows that electric vehicles (EVs) are cleaner than internal combustion vehicles thus, releasing fewer greenhouse gas emissions. According to the study, in Europe, the lifetime emissions produced by EVs are between 66% and 69% lower than gas-powered vehicles, whereas in India, it ranges between 19% and 34% lower. Besides, recycling EV batteries can slowly bring down carbon footprints.

Observing the seasonal changes transpiring globally, researchers have revealed a shocking discovery in the journal 'Geophysical Research Letters'. Citing the greenhouse gas emissions, the study said the Northern Hemisphere may witness 6-month long summers and 2-month long winters alongside shorter autumn and spring seasons by the end of the 21st century. The researchers opined that the dramatic shift will have far-reaching ramifications for … read-more

After the culmination of a two-day summit at Brussels, the European Union leaders have agreed to cut the EU’s greenhouse emissions to 55% by 2030 with pre-1990 levels. This commitment will replace the earlier one that aimed at cutting 40% emissions by 2030. The EU members have planned to invest €1.82 trillion for procuring technology and help the member nations. The long-standing deal was finalised after coal-reliant countries pledged their… read-more
