Many of his mistakes are big ones: he bungles the issues involving reserves and resources that are critical to his core argument about oil remaining cheap; he drastically misleads his readers about the extent to which sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide emissions from coal - burning have been reduced; he trivializes the climate - change risks from coals carbon dioxide emissions by suggesting we know the impacts will be worth only 0.64 cents per kilowatt - hour.
But even with the yield gaps closed, projected food demand will still require additional land — so the impact on GHG emissions and biodiversity remains.

This new engine definition has no impact on fuel consumption or CO2 emissions which remain contained at 7.5 L / 100 km and 174g / km *.
A few issues raised have been legitimate, such as leebert's information about the effects of soot - which remain controversial, and (as he pointed out) do not impact the need to reduce CO2 emissions.
Problem number one in greenhouse gas emissions remains coal consumption, not to mention its onerous impact on air quality and public health.
This is relevant because the greenhouse impact of leaks and emissions from gas operations remains an important consideration, even as new research supports the role of gas in cutting emissions relative to coal.
Policy attention to air quality is rising and global emissions of all the major pollutants fall in our projections, but their health impacts remain severe.
Also note that the recent recession, visible above as a minor emissions dip around 2007 - 2009, is anticipated by the International Energy Agency to have only a very small impact on the rate at which the remaining budget is consumed.
However, a clear understanding of how national emissions reductions commitments affect global climate change impacts requires an understanding of complex relationships between atmospheric ghg concentrations, likely global temperature changes in response to ghg atmospheric concentrations, rates of ghg emissions reductions over time and all of this requires making assumptions about how much CO2 from emissions will remain in the atmosphere, how sensitive the global climate change is to atmospheric ghg concentrations, and when the international community begins to get on a serious emissions reduction pathway guided by equity considerations.
Reducing carbon emissions and offsetting what remains is the only way to take full responsibility for your carbon impacts, but how can you make a strong business case for action and demonstrate a business return from this activity?
The Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) on the project remained essentially unchanged from the earlier Draft SEIS in contending that the pipeline would not significantly alter total global emissions of greenhouse gases.
Land use influences the climate system in many different ways including direct emissions from land - use change, hydrological impacts, biogeophysical impacts (such as changes in albedo and surface roughness), and the size of the remaining vegetation stock (influencing CO2 removal from the atmosphere).
Because it has been scientifically well established that there is a great risk of catastrophic harm from human - induced change (even though it is acknowledged that there are remaining uncertainties about timing and magnitude of climate change impacts), no high - emitting nation, sub-national government, organization, business, or individual of greenhouse gases may use some remaining scientific uncertainty about climate change impacts as an excuse for not reducing its emissions to its fair share of safe global greenhouse gas emission on the basis of scientific uncertainty.
Delaying fossil fuel emission cuts until 2020 (with 2 % / year emissions growth in 2012 — 2020) causes CO2 to remain above 350 ppm (with associated impacts on climate) until 2300 (Fig. 5B).
They keep faking data, because the «Greenhouse» theory, which underlies all climate projections of human impact through carbon emissions has remained unchallenged until now.
But as long as the rich nations — and their big polluters — dictate the terms of the Paris accord, maintain unhealthy fossil fuel subsidies and refuse to establish a long - term market for renewable energy that includes putting a price on carbon emissions, a world that protects more vulnerable nations, humans, animals and plants from the impacts of climate change will remain a dream.
