Spatiotemporal patterns of the fossil-fuel CO2 signal in central Europe: results from a high-resolution atmospheric transport model [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2017
The emission of CO2 from the burning of fossil fuel is a prime determinant of variations in atmospheric CO2. Here, we simulate this fossil-fuel signal together with the natural and background components with a regional high-resolution atmospheric ...

Existing fossil fuel extraction would warm the world beyond 1.5 °C

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2022
The Paris climate goals and the Glasgow Climate Pact require anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to decline to net zero by mid-century. This will require overcoming carbon lock-in throughout the energy system.

Review of the Effects of Fossil Fuels and the Need for a Hydrogen Fuel Cell Policy in Malaysia

open access: yesSustainability, 2023
The world has relied on fossil fuel energy for a long time, producing many adverse effects. Long-term fossil fuel dependency has increased carbon emissions and accelerated climate change. In addition, fossil fuels are also depleting and will soon be very

Still Not Getting Energy Prices Right: A Global and Country Update of Fossil Fuel Subsidies

open access: yesIMF Working Papers, 2021
This paper provides a comprehensive global, regional, and country-level update of: (i) efficient fossil fuel prices to reflect supply and environmental costs; and (ii) subsidies implied by charging below efficient fuel prices.

Aqueous production of secondary organic aerosol from fossil-fuel emissions in winter Beijing haze

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) from fossil-fuel combustion is a major component of Beijing winter haze pollution but its formation mechanisms are unclear.

Historical red-lining is associated with fossil fuel power plant siting and present-day inequalities in air pollutant emissions

open access: yesNature Energy, 2022
Historical appraisals of US neighbourhoods are thought to have led to present-day disparities in homeownership, home values and environmental and health outcomes. Cushing et al.

The study of CO2 absorption intensification using porous media material in aqueous AMP solution

open access: yesPetroleum, 2018
In this work, the performance of CO2 absorption into aqueous 2-amino-2-methyl-propanol (AMP) solution was investigated by measuring the amount of CO2 in the liquid phase during CO2 absorption process to identify initial CO2 absorption rate.

Fossil fuel dependence and energy insecurity

open access: yesEnergy, Sustainability and Society, 2022
Background Access to reliable energy services is increasingly seen as a prerequisite for well-being and human development. Copious research documents the negative consequences that occur when nations specialize in natural resource production, creating a “
