Nel says these rising temperatures will have many consequences,including greater reliance on underground water,which will increase energy use. [...] water-gel-based solar devices,or “artificial leaves”,can act like solar cells to produce electricity. [...] The sum total of water required for all of the power stations is six times the equivalent volume of the Vaal dam [...] MTN unveiled its multi-million rand tri-generation plant to power its entire headquarters in Fairlands,Johannesburg,yesterday. MTN "green"initiative The plant,the first of its kind in Africa,was built on the premises and cost R22million. It is a two-megawatt-power generation plant that uses methane to produce electricity. The unveiling was attended by Deputy [...] There has been much talk of the dirty oil polluting the seas and beaches close to the Deep Water Horizon,BP’s oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico. The latest studies are proving that the oil floating on top of the water,the visual shame,is not the worst of the disaster. It is hard to imagine that an activity like hunting can impact the worlds climate. After I become aware of the sheer volume of methane that is produced by cattle farming,I can now understand that there might be a correlation between the hunting mammoth and climate change. I’m still skeptical the about plausibility of [...] It is a fact that Methane is a worse Climate change gas than carbon dioxide and that burning methane produces CO2. Burning Methane which does help in the fight against climate change. However methane can be put to better use than just flaring it off. Flaring methane is a mini step in the right direction [...] Even after Eskom received its controversial loan from the world bank to build the coal burning coal plant Medupi,it is now applying for carbon credits. Coal power plant ESKOM wants to apply for carbon credits for Medupi,its planned coal- fired power station in Limpopo,under the United Nations (UN) Clean Development [...] Until recently I was unaware of the depth phytoplankton play in recycling carbon dioxide (CO2). I knew that as plants they capture CO2 though photosynthesis and produce oxygen. What I never thought of was what happened to that carbon once the oxygen molecules had been released. Much like any plant,phytoplankton uses the carbon molecule [...] Melting ice caps in the Arctic are causing more methane to be released. Is this the start of a giant snowball effect for climate change? Methane is considered to be a much worse Green House Gas than CO2. A team of scientists confirms that sea-bottom and surface waters of the East Siberian Arctic Shelf are [...] | ||
