A review of trends and drivers of greenhouse gas emissions by sector from 1990 to 2018
Global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions can be traced to five economic sectors: energy, industry, buildings, transport and AFOLU (agriculture, forestry and other land uses).

An investigation into linearity with cumulative emissions of the climate and carbon cycle response in HadCM3LC [PDF]
We investigate the extent to which global mean temperature, precipitation, and the carbon cycle are constrained by cumulative carbon emissions throughout four experiments with a fully coupled climate-carbon cycle model.

Towards Climate Neutrality in Poland by 2050: Assessment of Policy Implications in the Farm Sector
Climate neutrality achievement in the European Union assumes the necessity of efforts and transformations in most economic sectors of its member-states. The farm sector in Poland, being the second largest contributor to the country’s greenhouse gas (GHG)

California air resources board forest carbon protocol invalidates offsets [PDF]
The commercial asset value of sequestered forest carbon is based on protocols employed globally; however, their scientific basis has not been validated. We review and analyze commercial forest carbon protocols, claimed to have reduced net greenhouse gas ...

Cities, traffic, and CO2: A multidecadal assessment of trends, drivers, and scaling relationships [PDF]
Emissions of CO2 from road vehicles were 1.57 billion metric tons in 2012, accounting for 28% of US fossil fuel CO2 emissions, but the spatial distributions of these emissions are highly uncertain.

What is a sustainable level of CO2 emissions from transport activity in the UK in 2050? [PDF]
The paper reports on the development of UK transport targets for CO2 emissions for 2050. Five key studies containing future carbon emissions scenarios for the UK were used to establish targets for overall reductions in emissions to achieve stabilisation ...

Trends in China's anthropogenic emissions since 2010 as the consequence of clean air actions
. To tackle the problem of severe air pollution, China has implemented active clean air policies in recent years. As a consequence, the emissions of major air pollutants have decreased and the air quality has substantially improved.

Energy structure, digital economy, and carbon emissions: evidence from China
As a new production factor, digitalization plays a vital role in society, economy, and the environment. Based on the expanded STIRPAT model, this paper empirically tests the impact of energy structure and digital economy on carbon emissions by panel data

Experimental Investigation of Zn2+ Impact on Hydration, Carbonation, and Strength of CSA Cement [PDF]
This study explores the effects of Zn2+ incorporation on the hydration and carbonation behavior of calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement. CSA clinker with varying Zn2+ contents was synthesized using ZnSO4·7H2O as the heavy metal source.
