«Support investment in sustainable energy with tax - policy that is at least equal to the benefits given to fossil fuels.»
It's quite a daunting challenge, given that the average hurricane's wind energy equals about half of the world's electricity production in a year.
Although the young Graham refused to countenance segregated seating in his crusades (often at the price of sullen resistance from white supporters), he seems to have expended equal energy urging civil rights protesters to go slow — giving credence to Reinhold Niebuhr's charge that he expected Christians to give up peccadillos like smoking and cussing overnight, but overcoming racism might understandably take a while.
I was self - conscious that I did not give an equal amount of energy to what I graciously received from the cultural experience in while there.
It appears to me that a more correct analysis would note in equilibrium for a given layer energy out must equal energy in.
Absorption of thermal radiation cools the thermal spectra of the earth as seen from space, radiation emitted by de-excitation is what results in the further warming of the surface, and the surface continues to warm until the rate at which energy is radiated from the earth's climate system (given the increased opacity of the atmosphere to longwave radiation) is equal to the rate at which energy enters it.
This leads to a higher equilibrium temperature, but balance is reestablished again in a sense that time averages of energy in - and - out are equal for each volume element, given some fixed elevation of greenhouse gas concentration.
This ignorance leads to radio ads decrying NIMBYism as the only reason for disallowing offshore drilling, even while these rich landowners still don't allow any wind / solar where they can see, make up all sorts of lies about wind / solar, while bush refuses to give equal subsidies to «alternative» energy and refuses to tax windfall profits to oil companies, who break records year after year in profits...
With the approximation of geothermal and tidal (and fossil fuel combustion) heat supplies being zero (valid for at least the inner planets), the net flux at a given level is equal to the energy gain or loss rate for the whole climate system below that level.
The United States Energy Information Administration gives world reserves as 998 billion short tons [28](equal to 905 gigatonnes), approximately half of it being hard coal.
A new report produced by SEforALL and ENERGIA, Levers of Change, provides powerful evidence of how women are often not given an equal chance to take advantage of sustainable energy opportunities, such as traditional and mobile money financing that would enable them to acquire home solar systems or clean cooking solutions.
Given that 60 million barrels of oil equals 17 hours of world energy consumption, it's a pretty ridiculous effort to do anything, from affecting prices in a meaningful way to affecting the trenchant recession to impacting the political scene.
If given the choice between «clean» and «dirty» energy, nearly everyone would prefer «clean» provided that all other things are equal
The Earth is an independent source of energy by virtue of the fact that it receives energy from the sun (also some emerging from its interior) and must give off an equal (or greater) amount of energy itself or it would continue to heat up.
At any given height H, when Dominic's «atoms» are in thermodynamic equilibrium, equipartition says that their kinetic energy in the horizontal direction is equal to their kinetic energy in the vertical direction.
Theorem: The steady - state dissipation of a thermodynamic system due to an energy flux between two isothermal surfaces equals the maximum rate of work possible for a Carnot engine operating between these same temperatures given the same energy input.
This is the amount of extra energy the Earth would radiate back into space (all else being equal) if the temperature were raised 1 °C, simply because hotter objects give off more radiation.
I give up on teaching Mosher that all WATTS of electromagnetic energy are not equal.
«Given its unique and wide ranging benefits including its baseload capability, relative low cost to other generation technologies and that it doesn't produce waste materials that need to be dealt with by future generations, it is vital that governments provide funding and support to develop their geothermal industries equal to, if not greater than, that provided to other technologies,» says Susan Jeanes, Chief Executive of the Australian Geothermal Energy Association.
If we give each range an equal amount of «hay» (energy) each 10 - 11μm «horse» will have less than each 18 - 19μm «horse», so the peak «eating» of «energy» will occur with the latter group of horses, because there are fewer of them.
The initial inflation energy equals the Laplace pressure (P = 2 γ r), which, given the surface energy of water, is ~ 160 kilopascal in micron - radius bubbles and integrates to ~ 100 J l - 1 of internal volume, to which must be added the interfacial energy and the viscous and gravitational work of displacement.
In any case, it is simply an effort to reconcile the rapid rates of warming in the Arctic with the output of the most recent group of global climate models — everyone agrees that global warming is real, except for a very large number of editors and reporters with the U.S. press, who continue to advocate for the positions held by a small number of fossil fuel funded contrarians and insist on giving them «equal time» — a luxury denied to renewable energy experts.
