Air travel to get bumpier as CO2 emissions rise, scientists say
2013-04-09 09:59:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
NBC: Turbulence on transatlantic flights will become more frequent and severe by 2050 as carbon dioxide emissions rise, leading to longer journey times and increased fuel consumption, British scientists said in a study on Monday. Any air traveller has probably experienced turbulence. It can happen without warning and is caused by climate conditions such as atmospheric pressure, jet streams, cold and warm fronts or thunderstorms. Light turbulence shakes the aircraft, but more severe episodes can...

U.S. CO2 emissions falls to lowest level since 1994
2013-04-05 19:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Mongabay: Carbon dioxide emissions from energy consumption in the United States during 2012 fell to the lowest level since 1994, finds a new report from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, a branch of the Department of Energy. The assessment concludes that some 5.3 billion metric tons of CO2 were emitted from coal, natural gas, and oil consumption during the year, a 3.7 percent decline relative to 2011 and 12.1 percent below the peak of 6 billion tons hit in 2007. The EIA cited increased use of...

CO2 and CH4 Gas Level Meter targets biogas industry.
2013-04-05 14:36:36| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Based on non-dispersive infrared sensor, CO2 and CH4 Meter measures up to 100% methane and 50% carbon dioxide levels in real-time, or can be used as data logger to record gas levels over time. Meter is available as hand-held, battery-operated device, or in permanently mounted NEMA4 enclosure. Both use built-in micro-pump to take sample via tube port, measure sample, and return it via second tube port to form closed-loop gas measurement system.

Canada: CO2 in oil sands down for Statoil
2013-04-04 07:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
United Press International: The intensity of carbon dioxide emissions tied to oil sands production in Canada declined more than 20 percent, Norwegian energy company Statoil said. Stataoil published its annual oil sands report for 2012, saying it increased oil production from Canadian tar sands fields more than 60 percent while time reducing CO2 intensity. "We are proud of the results we have achieved and are encouraged to continue our efforts to reach our ambitious targets," regional Vice President for Statoil Stale Tungesvik...
