If CO2 EOR enables oil that otherwise would not have been extracted from the ground to be released and this oil from EOR doesn't displace oil elsewhere in the world from being extracted, the
net impact of EOR on CO2
emissions is likely positive.
Over the long run, determining the «additionality» and global price
impacts of oil recovered through EOR will be critical for determining whether CO2 EOR provides a
net negative source of
emissions.
Since the solar - generated electricity is considered to be carbon - free, the
net impact is a reduction of greenhouse gas
emissions associated with MIT's greenhouse gas inventory.
The albedo change resulting from the snowline retreat on land is similarly large as the retreat of sea ice, so the combined
impact could be well over 2 W / sq m. To put this in context, albedo changes in the Arctic alone could more than double the
net radiative forcing resulting from the
emissions caused by all people of the world, estimated by the IPCC to be 1.6 W / sq m in 2007 and 2.29 W / sq m in 2013.»

emissions at the regional level.
Since the ESA forbids the Federal Government from funding any activities which might harm a listed species, why not sue to prevent the ridiculous Federal subsidies on Ethanol, on the grounds that the production, distribution, and use of ethanol have a
net negative
impact on carbon dioxide
emissions when compared with petroleum products, thus accelerating global warming and further endangering the polar bears.
Looking toward the second half of this century, innovative ways to achieve
net zero carbon
emissions will be needed to stave off the worst

emissions of CO2 MUST [emphasis added] be reduced by more than 50 percent within this century.»
Compared to the real world in which unchecked increasing GHG
emissions will certainly lead to numerous adverse economic
impacts, putting a price on carbon

• Poles to tropics temperature gradient, average temp of tropics over past 540 Ma; and arguably warming may be

net economic
impact; if SCC is negative GHG
emissions are
net - beneficial.
On the vital question of how to approach climate change, the most influential economist is William Nordhaus whose explicit position is that we should decide to reduce greenhouse gas
emissions only if cost - benefit analysis or an optimisation model concludes that the
net benefits to humans are positive, where the relevant effects are essentially
impacts on economic output (Nordhaus and Yang, 1996).
Organizers say the 2006 Winter Olympic Games in Turin, Italy, will have no
net impact on global climate disruption, thanks to energy efficiency, clean - energy tech, and tree planting to offset carbon dioxide
emissions.
Princeton scholar Tim Searchinger has modeled this
impact and reports in Science magazine that the
net impact of the food - to - fuel push will be an increase in global carbon
emissions — and thus a catalyst for climate change.
So, lolwot, all your words provide NO EVIDENCE that the added CO2 from human
emissions COULD (or will) be catastrophic or even have a negative, rather than a positive
net overall
impact.
Booth says there is wide agreement in the industry that when biomass comes from forestry residues, wood products manufacturing, or agriculture, the
net carbon
impact is the difference between
emissions from the use of the material as fuel and
emissions from some other fate, such as leaving it on the ground to decompose.
That changed on Thursday, when the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the UN agency charged with coordinating aviation regulation, including environmental
impact, agreed to freeze
net aviation
emissions at 2020 levels beginning in 2021, and to force airlines to offset
emissions above that threshold.
Determining the
net impact for
emissions from Keystone XL offers more wiggle room for the president, as the State Department previously concluded that the Keystone XL pipeline would bring no major climate
impacts.
This new concept of anthropogenic
impacts on seawater pH formulated here accommodates the broad range of mechanisms involved in the anthropogenic forcing of pH in coastal ecosystems, including changes in land use, nutrient inputs, ecosystem structure and
net metabolism, and
emissions of gases to the atmosphere affecting the carbon system and associated pH. The new paradigm is applicable across marine systems, from open - ocean and ocean - dominated coastal systems, where OA by anthropogenic CO2 is the dominant mechanism of anthropogenic
impacts on marine pH, to coastal ecosystems where a range of natural and anthropogenic processes may operate to affect pH.
Critically, as our recent alert demanded, biofuel's indirect land use
