EPA Announces Grant Opportunities to Reduce Diesel Emissions at Ports
2014-09-22 06:00:00| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
EPA announced availability of up to $5 million in grant funding to establish clean diesel projects aimed at reducing emissions from marine and inland water ports located in areas of poor air quality. This is the second grant competition to focus on reducing emissions at ports under the Diesel Emission Reduction Act. Projects may include drayage trucks, marine engines, locomotives, and cargo handling equipment at marine or inland water ports.

World greenhouse emissions threaten warming goal
2014-09-21 21:55:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Agence France-Presse: Emissions of greenhouse gases are rising so fast that within one generation the world will have used up its margin of safety for limiting global warming to 2°C (3.6°F), an international team of scientists warned Sunday. A report by the Global Carbon Project (GCP), published two days ahead of the UN climate summit on Tuesday, found that carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil-fuel combustion and cement production grew by 2.3 percent in 2013, reaching a record 36 billion tonnes of CO2. It predicted...

Reports Offer Clearest Picture Yet Rising Greenhouse Gas Emissions
2014-09-21 19:57:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
National Geographic: Two days before the UN Climate Summit in New York, three new studies paint the clearest picture yet of rising greenhouse gas emissions and the dwindling opportunity for staving off the worst impacts-and also of at least one way that huge undertaking might be shared fairly among the nations of the world. "The overall outlook is rather bleak," says Steven J. Davis, a climate scientist at the University of California, Irvine, who co-authored a paper published Sunday in the journal Nature Climate...

China's per capita carbon emissions overtake EU's
2014-09-21 19:43:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
BBC: New data on carbon shows that China's emissions per head of population have surpassed the EU for the first time. The researchers say that India is also forecast to beat Europe's CO2 output in 2019. Scientists say that global totals are increasing fast and will likely exceed the limit for dangerous climate change within 30 years. The world has already used up two thirds of the warming gases researchers calculate will breach 2 degrees C. The Global Carbon Project involves researchers from...
