Benefits of pollution monitoring technology for greenhouse gas offset markets [PDF]

open access: yes
Environmental economists have shown that tradable emission permit markets can reduce the costs to society of pollution reduction. However, when emissions are difficult to monitor and verify, offset credits from pollution reductions may be subject to ...

A survey of geenhouse gasses in Slovakia [PDF]

open access: yesActa Montanistica Slovaca, 1998
This article presents the results of greenhouse gas emission inventory in the Slovak Republic within the period 1990-1994. CO2 emission from combustion is presented from 1988 as the starting point for the Toronto target commitment.

Thermally Processable, Transparent, Mechanically Tunable and Robust Bioplastics From Wastepaper

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Unlike conventional inefficient or low‐value wastepaper recycling, a directional transformation strategy is employed to convert whole wastepaper into intact bioplastics with tunable mechanical properties in our work. These bioplastics can be processed into flexible bags or rigid containers and exhibit high transparency, water resistance, repairability,

Importance of N2O in greenhouse gas budgets of tropical peatlands

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science
Tropical peatland ecosystems significantly influence Earth’s climate through their greenhouse gas exchange. Permanently wet peatlands take up carbon dioxide in plants and accumulate organic carbon in soil but release methane.

Closed‐Loop Radiative Cooling Mulch Upcycled From Agricultural Residues for Efficient Soil Heat–Water Stress Mitigation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional passive radiative cooling films rely on costly feedstocks and energy‐intensive fabrication, with poor end‐of‐life compatibility in agriculture. To address this challenge, a sustainable radiative cooling mulch (SRCM) is developed from waste maize leaves via spontaneous hydrogen‐bond self‐assembly.

Solar‐Driven Bifunctional Adsorption‐Storage Films for Ultra‐Fast Dehumidification and Freshwater Supply in Low‐carbon Buildings

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Bifunctional adsorption‐storage films enable autonomous indoor humidity regulation and freshwater harvesting, rapidly decreasing relative humidity from 90.7% to 21.6% within one hour while producing 1.1 kg·m−2·day−1 of water, offering a passive route towards energy‐efficient humidity control and sustainable indoor environments. ABSTRACT Indoor humidity

From SO2 to Greenhouse Gases: Trends and Events Shaping Future Emissions Trading Programs in the United States [PDF]

open access: yes
Cap-and-trade programs have become widely accepted for the control of conventional air pollution in the United States. However, there is still no political consensus to use these programs to address greenhouse gases. Meanwhile, in the wake of the success

Integrated Photoelectrode and Electrolyte Engineering via Carbon Quantum Dots for Self‐Powered H2O/O2‐Mediated Portable Photoelectrochemical Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Surface‐charged N‐CQDs serve as both electrolyte additives and photocathode modifiers. Electrodeposited N‐CQDs on Cu2O form a stable composite, steering 4e− ORR toward water. A quasi‐solid electrolyte with N‐CQDs aids charge migration, electrode‐electrolyte interfacial compatibility and replenishes active sites.

Greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture in the EU: A spatial assessment of sources and abatement costs

open access: yes
Agriculture contributes significantly to the emissions of greenhouse gases in the EU. By using a farm-type, linear-programming based model of the European agricultural supply, we first assess the initial levels of methane and nitrous oxide emissions at ...
