Reduction of carbon dioxide emissions...? 6 June Reduction of Carbon Dioxide Emissions Why reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions? Global warming has become one of the biggest world issues in the present age because it is causing a lot of problems. With the increase in temperature, more and more glaciers are melting away every year and this water pours into rivers and seas. The resulting increase in the sea level is the main cause of the frequent and severe hurricanes, cyclones and tsunamis. The rise in temperature of water on the surface of sea facilitates in the building up of tsunamis. Natural disasters have blanketed the world in the recent years. Every year, many areas are...

Carbon dioxide emissions...Running head: CARBON DIOXIDE EMISSIONS Carbon dioxide emissions Insert Insert Insert 3 April Carbondioxide emissionsCarbon dioxide emission is a by-product of energy production, which is the largest among green house gasses that contribute to global warming. This gas emerges from combustion of fossil fuels, which include automobiles, industrial production such as metal production, coal, and oil and gas from factories (World bank publications, 2004 pp 147). Due to the effects of carbon dioxide emissions to the climate,...

Carbon Dioxide Reduction...ORDER 345147 Better Policy Standards: A Sole Means of Reconciliation between Co2 Emission and Protecting Building Industry
Introduction
At the present era due to the tragic consequences of climate change world community is continuously facing the traumas of varied nature in their day -to-day lives. Particularly, excessive use of some lethal gases like carbon- dioxide, carbon monoxide etc. the global environment has stored more heat causing climate change and affecting people in a wider scale. Hopefully, of late, UK government has much considerately taken decision to reduce and emit carbon-di-oxide from buildings. Consequently, building industry in the...

Carbon Dioxide Fire Suppression System...Hazards of Carbon Dioxide Fire Suppression System Carbon dioxide suppresses fire hazards through a thermophysical mechanism wherein reacting gases that contribute to the fire are prevented from achieving high temperatures. Senecal (1999) has shown that the gas works by diluting the concentration of fire-reactive gases therefore slowing the rate of flame chemistry. Benefits in using this gas includes not needing superpressurization, none reactivity with most materials and not needing a clean-up agent because it leaves no residue.
The risk associated in installing and using Carbon Dioxide as a fire suppressant in an occupied area lies in...

Carbon dioxide emissions from existing housing stock...Carbon Dioxide Emissions from Existing Housing Stock Introduction The amount of carbon dioxide that melts into the atmosphere as a result of our routine actions creates footprint of carbon. In fact at times, we unknowingly tend to perform some actions which lead to an increase in our carbon footprints on the environment, which proves detrimental for our own survival. Inefficient use of energy, inefficient housing stock, rampant industrial activities etc. are the key factors being blamed for an increase in carbon footprints. The society seems to have become wiser in many ways has now started widely...

Carbon Emissions...in such a way that it can limit the amount of exhaust fumes released. The more the exhaust fumes being released, the more the level of the emission of carbon dioxide to the air. The fuels they use produce a lot of carbon. It has been noted that the use of petrol as fuel contributes to large amounts of carbon emission. If alternative fuels are sought and the citizens encouraged using these, then there would be up to 75% reduction in the amount of carbon that would be emitted to the atmosphere. Fuels such as ethanol have been proven to produce low levels of emissions. Therefore, it would be prudent enough...

Effects of carbon dioxide...Effects of Carbon Dioxide Carbon dioxide, in its most basic form, has been prove to be harmful and, in some cases, deadly to human beings, animals and plants. While there is an array of negative effects of carbon dioxide, there are also some effects that can be considered good, especially in the way of the growth of plants. One of the more harmful effects of carbon dioxide on the environment includes its role in the greenhouse effect. A positive effect that carbon dioxide has on the environment is how it is used to help plants grow (Fowler, 2004), in turn giving humans...

Oceanic injection of carbon dioxide...Oceanic Injection of Carbon Dioxide Oceanic Injection of Carbon Dioxide The challenges of climate change have ledto innovations of reducing carbon dioxide gas released to the atmosphere. This includes the oceanic injection of carbon dioxide innovations that has raised concerns over its safety and sustainability (Johnston & Santillo, N.D). The technology involves capturing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and other emitters and converting it into liquid substances that are deposited in the deep sea (Johansen, 2008). The controversy over the issue is of interest and the...
