Fossil Fuels

2022
Fossil fuels are protected from rapid degradation and extinction as a result of phytoplankton and zooplankton living in seas and lakes and terrestrial plant residues accumulating in H2S-rich, oxygen-free environments, rapidly covering them with sediments and sinking into the ground. These organic-origin residues begin to decompose and be transformed by

The Legacy of Fossil Fuels

Chemistry – An Asian Journal, 2011
AbstractCurrently, over 80 % of the energy used by mankind comes from fossil fuels. Harnessing coal, oil and gas, the energy resources contained in the store of our spaceship, Earth, has prompted a dramatic expansion in energy use and a substantial improvement in the quality of life of billions of individuals in some regions of the world.

‘We’re in the coal business’: Maintaining fossil fuel hegemony in the face of climate change

Journal of Industrial Relations, 2022
Despite the worsening climate crisis and market shifts towards decarbonization, Australia remains heavily invested in carbon-intensive activities. As one of the world's largest exporters of coal and gas, Australian political economy has been dominated ...

Biodesulfurization of fossil fuels

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2003
Biotechnological techniques enabling the specific removal of sulfur from fossil fuels have been developed. In the past three years there have been important advances in the elucidation of the mechanisms of biodesulfurization; some of the most significant relate to the role of a flavin reductase, DszD, in the enzymology of desulfurization, and to the ...

Equity, climate justice and fossil fuel extraction: principles for a managed phase out

Climate Policy, 2020
Equity issues have long been debated within international climate politics, focused on fairly distributing reductions in territorial emissions and fossil fuel consumption. There is a growing recognition among scholars and policymakers that curbing fossil

Climate change and fossil fuel production cuts: assessing global supply-side constraints and policy implications

Climate Policy, 2020
This paper presents the first global database of supply-side climate initiatives seeking to constrain fossil fuel production. There is a clear imperative to keep a large proportion of fossil fuel reserves underground to keep global temperature rise under

Dynamic linkages amongst ecological footprints, fossil fuel energy consumption and globalization: an empirical analysis

, 2020
The purpose of this paper is to examine the dynamic linkages amongst ecological footprints, fossil fuel consumption, real income, globalization and population in Egypt in the period from 1971 to 2014.,The paper uses fully modified ordinary least squares (
