Brazil greenhouse gas emissions down 4.9 pct in 2012 -report
2013-11-08 10:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Brazil's greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) fell 4.9 percent in 2012 as declining deforestation rates and a drought-induced drop in cattle herds outweighed increased emissions from the energy sector, an independent study showed on Thursday. The nation's output of heat-trapping gases, which are blamed for climate change, hit 1.484 billion tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) last year, according to Climate Observatory, a network of nongovernmental organizations that includes World Wildlife Fund,...

New Scientist: HAVE you ever thought that switching to low-energy light bulbs or buying a hybrid car is pointless? It's not. All those little changes do actually add up.

In 2012, the growth in emissions was 1.1 per cent, compared with an average of 2.9 per cent since 2000. Perhaps more importantly, the rise was less than a third of the 3.5 per cent growth in global...

Asahi Shimbun: The government has set a target of 2020 greenhouse gas emissions at 3.8 percent lower than 2005 levels, sources said, noting that the figure is still more than 3 percent higher than 1990 levels. It is likely to be criticized by the international community. The figure was agreed to during a Nov. 6 meeting between Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and Environment Minister Nobuteru Ishihara. It reflects a sense that Japan may not be able to depend on nuclear power--a clean form of energy--in the future...
