IPCC Report: Fossil Fuels Be Phased Out by 2100'
2014-11-02 20:54:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
EcoWatch: Today, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)--the world body for assessing the science related to climate change--released the final component of its Fifth Assessment Report, the Synthesis Report in Copenhagen, Denmark. The IPPC report states that "Human influence on the climate system is clear and growing, with impacts observed on all continents. If left unchecked, climate change will increase the likelihood of severe, pervasive and irreversible impacts for people and ecosystems."...

Fossil fuels should be phased out by 2100 IPCC
2014-11-02 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
BBC: The unrestricted use of fossil fuels should be phased out by 2100 if the world is to avoid dangerous climate change, a UN-backed expert panel says. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change says in a stark report that most of the world's electricity can - and must - be produced from low-carbon sources by 2050. If not, the world faces "severe, pervasive and irreversible" damage. The UN said inaction would cost "much more" than taking the necessary action. The IPCC's Synthesis Report...

Replacing full 2-D encoding systems, RollerFORM facilitates immersion-like ultrasonic testing of composites and other smooth-surfaced materials that are used in aerospace industry. Wheel tire is made from material that closely matches acoustic impedance of water, permitting efficient transmission of energy to part without unwanted echoes, and obtaining 1 mm near-surface resolution in composites when using 5 MHz probe model. For thicker materials, 3.5 MHz model is available. This story is related to the following:Ultrasonic Probes

Oil and Coal Must Be Phased Out Entirely by 2050 to Stop Catastrophic Warming
2014-06-13 20:56:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Motherboard: If we really want to maintain a livable climate, and prevent global temperatures from rising more than 2° Celsius, then no nation, anywhere, can burn any oil, gas, or coal at all after 2050, according to a striking new analysis of the latest climate science. The world must start preparing for a rapid decarbonization of the energy and industry sectors within the next decade and get to zero emissions by 2050, Bill Hare, a climate scientist at Climate Analytics, told me in an interview from Bonn,...
