Researchers at George Washington University led by Dr. Stuart Licht ( earlier post ) have developed a new process that transforms CO 2 into a controlled selection of nanotubes (CNTs) via molten electrolysis; they call the process C2CNT (CO2 into carbon nanotubes). —Ren et al.

For example, are the benefits of fuel cells the same in Washington state, which gets much of its power from hydroelectricity, as in West Virginia, which is dominated by coal?

You’ll be helping to cut your carbon footprint and you’ll be doing the South Bay community a good turn. It is disturbing that the Washington Post would publish such information without first checking the facts. At least the Washington Post balances these lies by reporting on the biggest climate change news of our day.

This study looked at all available bio feedstocks that would not affect the food or fresh water supply chain. Following along the Airbus Alternative Fuels Roadmap, by launching this new initiative with Qatar Airways, we have taken yet another important step to reach carbon neutral growth in the aviation sector by 2020.

Thousands of Washington insiders and climate activists have had a hand in these legislative breakthroughs. Among the most articulate and almost certainly the wonkiest is Jesse Jenkins , a professor of engineering at Princeton University, where he heads the ZERO Lab—the Zero-carbon Energy systems Research and Optimization Laboratory, that is.

IHS CERA’s earlier comparison of 11 publicly available life-cycle analysis studies found that fuel produced from oil sands mining has average well-to–retail pump greenhouse gas emissions 1.3 times the average for fuel consumed in the United States. That WTW range is lower than that determined by a number of other studies, IHS CERA notes.).

Researchers at George Washington University led by Dr. Stuart Licht have introduced the principles of a new class rechargeable molten air batteries that offer amongst the highest intrinsic electric energy storage capabilities. Simple steel foil cathodes and nickel foil anodes are effective for either iron oxide or carbon dioxide splitting.

May, 2007 : An international team of researchers concluded that the ability of the Southern Ocean to absorb carbon dioxide had slowed by about 15% per decade since 1981 ( earlier post ), and projected that at the present rate of deterioration, it will have lost two-thirds of its ability to store carbon by 2050.

The vision is fuelled by the fear of climate change and the need to find green alternatives to dirty coal, unpopular nuclear power and unreliable gas imports from Russia. Are we going to burn more oil, natural gas, or (gasp) coal to produce it? The only question is a carbon TAX the kind of change Obama believes in.

With all this, consumers and policymakers alike are hopeful that society will soon greatly reduce its carbon emissions by replacing today’s cars with electric vehicles. 70 percent of lithium-ion batteries are produced in China, which derived 64 percent of its electricity from coal in 2020. But coal use varies, even within China.
