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

A comparison of the climate and carbon cycle effects of carbon removal by afforestation and an equivalent reduction in fossil fuel emissions [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2023
Afforestation and reduction of fossil fuel emissions are two major components of climate mitigation policies. However, their effects on the Earth's climate are different because a reduction of fossil fuel emissions directly alters the biogeochemical ...

Cross-national analysis of attitudes towards fossil fuel subsidy removal

open access: yesNature Climate Change, 2023
In 2021, governments of 51 countries spent US$697 billion on subsidizing fossil fuels. Removing fossil fuel subsidies is crucial not only for reducing CO_2 emissions and making carbon pricing more effective, but also for making more valuable use of ...

The “carbon curse” effect and its heterogeneity in cities of China [PDF]

open access: yesZiyuan Kexue, 2023
[Objective] The term “carbon curse” outlines a situation where regions with abundant fossil fuel resources are more likely to pursue a carbon-intensive growth path than regions with scarce fossil fuel resources.

Fossil fuels' future [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2014
The 27 June special section on The Great Gas Boom (“The gas surge,” D. Malakoff, p. 1464) about natural gas from hydraulic fracturing provided a useful update on a range of important environmental, social, and economic issues, with the exception of the elephant in the room: Natural gas is a fossil fuel.

Governing fossil fuel production in the age of climate disruption: Towards an international law of ‘leaving it in the ground’

open access: yesEarth System Governance, 2021
To achieve the long-term temperature goals set by the 2015 Paris Agreement and avert climate disruption, fossil fuel production cannot continue to proceed unabated. This dawning realisation has led to calls to ‘leave fossil fuels in the ground’.

Development of Cost-Effective Fertilizer-Based Media for the Microalgae Cultivation Aimed at Effective Biomass Production

open access: yesNUST Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2020
In the diversification of the world's energy portfolio, microalgae biofuels have gained particular attention as a means of providing carbon-neutral hydrocarbon-based fuels. The progress on this front has been hindered because of expensive and unreliable

Stranded fossil-fuel assets translate to major losses for investors in advanced economies

open access: yesNature Climate Change, 2022
The distribution of ownership of transition risk associated with stranded fossil-fuel assets remains poorly understood. We calculate that global stranded assets as present value of future lost profits in the upstream oil and gas sector exceed US$1 ...

An improved correlation to determine minimum miscibility pressure of CO2–oil system

open access: yesGreen Energy & Environment, 2020
An accurate and reliable estimation of minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) of CO2–oil system is a critical task for the design and implementation of CO2 miscible displacement process.
