China and other big emitters challenge Australia over climate change policies

Sydney Morning Herald: The world's biggest greenhouse gas emitters, including China and the US, have questioned the credibility of Australia's climate change targets and "direct action" policy in a list of queries to the Abbott government. In the latest sign of diplomatic pressure over Canberra's stance on global warming, China accused Australia of doing less to cut emissions than it is demanding of other developed countries, and asked it to explain why this was fair. China now the world's biggest emitter: Local...

IR Emitters reduce component count while increasing intensity.
2015-04-15 14:31:06| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Comprising one leaded 5 mm IR emitter with parabolic lens and 8 SMD devices in 0805, PLCC-2, top-looking and side-looking packages, high-speed 940 nm IR emitters employ SurfLight™ surface emitter chip technology. Emission of nearly all light and power from top of chip results in radiant intensity ratings up to 600 mW/sr (leaded) or 10–120 mW/sr (SMD). Respectively, angles of half intensity for leaded and SMD devices are ±3° and ±9° to ±60°. Rise and fall times are 10 nsec.

Sydney Morning Herald: A report that shows power companies are the worst polluters underscores the need to retain the renewable energy target in its current form says Greens environment spokesperson Larissa Waters. AGL has emerged as Australia's biggest greenhouse gas emitter after its purchase of NSW assets added to its fleet of brown coal-fired power stations in Victoria. According to data released by the Clean Energy Regulator and analysed in a report by the Australian Conservation Foundation, AGL narrowly trailed...

Two carbon emitters can work together on climate change
2015-01-24 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Economic Times: At the UN General Assembly in New York last September, I had the honour of sitting down with Prime Minister Narendra Modi to discuss our shared interests, including policies that encourage sustainable economic development and the role that cities can play in supporting them. As the special envoy for cities and climate change for UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, I was especially impressed with the PMs ambition to create 100 smart cities, where clean energy will power green economic growth, while...

Washington State's cap-and-trade plan for carbon emitters
2014-12-21 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Olympian: At the heart of Gov. Jay Inslees climate-action and state budget plans is a cap-and-trade system that would charge potentially 130 major polluters for their emission of greenhouse gases. The goal is to make heavy emitters, including fuel refineries and fuel suppliers, pay for their releases of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas linked by scientists to global warming. Inslee hasnt set a price yet, but based on a similar California plan, the state could raise almost $1 billion a year with a price...
