News & Blog articles where 'emissions' used:- Most ‘Climate Policies’ Do Not Bring Down Emissions, New Study Finds
Only a small percentage of climate policies instituted globally have actually resulted in any significant emissions reductions, according to a study published earlier in August in Science, a respected scientific publication. - Extension of the linear carbon sink model – temperature matters
The relation between CO2 Emission and resulting concentration of the last 65 years can be best understood with a simple top-down model, where the net sink effect, which is the difference between anthropogenic emissions and atmospheric CO2 concentration... - The Quest for Climate’s “Golden Fleece”
However, since actual temperature and CO2 data result in a current climate sensitivity of ca. 1.25, there is plainly something wrong with the current “fad” for climate sensitivities of 3 or more. - Math Confirms Foolishness of Climate Alarmism
Whatever the motivations, spending trillions of dollars to replace fossil fuels with expensive and unreliable wind and solar sources is foolish, futile and dangerous. - Carbon naughty list: Russia, Australia, USA, export more “climate damage” than any other nations
By Jo Nova It’s something to be proud of: Russia, Australia and USA have the biggest Greenhouse Gas Export footprint on Earth. It’s a bizarrely contrived title though, where we have to ignore domestic emissions and blame countries instead... - Climate Etc.Implications of the Linear Carbon Sink ModelClimate Etc.
...both models can explain the emission and concentration data of the past very well, makes it necessary to check the deviations in the future. - Global CO2 Emissions are Tracking Well Below the Climate Scenarios Used to Scare People
While an emissions scenario like SSP5-8.5 has been widely used to scare humanity with climate model projections of extreme warming, this plot shows the last several years of global emissions (through 2023) suggest the future will look nothing like that... - Net Zero Averted Temperature Increase
...we estimate that if the United States (U.S.) eliminated net CO2 emissions by the year 2050, this would avert a warming of 0.0084 ◦C (0.015 ◦F), which is below our ability to accurately measure.

- Emissions Leakage
This is a concept often used
by policymakers in reference to the problem that emissions abatement achieved in one
location may be offset by increased emissions in unregulated locations. Such leakage can
arise, for example, in the short term as emissions abaters reduce energy demand or timber
supply, influencing world prices for these commodities and increasing the quantity emitted
elsewhere; and it can arise in the longer term, for example, as industries relocate to
avoid controls.

- Emissions Trading
This is an economic incentive-based alternative to command-and-control regulation. In an emissions trading program, sources of a particular pollutant (most often an air pollutant) are given permits to release a specified number of tons of the pollutant. The government issues only a limited number of permits consistent with the desired level of emissions. The owners of the permits may keep them and release the pollutants, or reduce their emissions and sell the permits. The fact that the permits have value as an item to be sold or traded gives the owner an incentive to reduce their emissions.

- Emissions Trading
Emissions trading or cap and trade is usually a government-mandated, market-based approach to controlling pollution by providing economic incentives for achieving reductions in the emissions of pollutants.
This is often associated with
carbon trading to allow polluters to 'offset' their pollution by buying equivalent
carbon credits.
