By switching to electric school buses and encouraging EV adoption in the community, schools can reduce air pollution and create a healthier environment for children to learn. Beyond simply paying for school buses, the EPA will also provide funding for administrative costs and even workforce training.

The 1,000 wind turbines that the spheres could anchor could, on average, replace a conventional on-shore coal or nuclear plant. The team hopes to extend its testing to a 3-meter sphere, and then scale up to a 10-meter version to be tested in an undersea environment, if funding becomes available.

Results of the study suggest that soot is second only to carbon dioxide in contributing to global warming. Jacobson found that the combination of the two types of soot is the second-leading cause of global warming after carbon dioxide.

Would these vehicles truly help to lower carbon emissions. They rely on a battery charged from a standard 120 volt or 240 volt outlet and do not produce carbon emissions while running but require frequent charging. In 2008, transportation accounted for 22 percent of all city carbon emissions. Should the city encourage their use?

The combination of harvesting whole forests and burning long-sequestered carbon sources such as coal or oil has impaired the Earth’s carbon cycle at an increasing pace.
