Earth getting greener due to carbon dioxide fertilization
2016-04-27 03:49:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Zee News: A new study has revealed the Earth is getting significant greening over the last 35 years and it is mainly due to rising levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2). Studies have shown that a quarter to half of the Earth's vegetated land are now showing signs of increased leaf cover, with the majority caused by extra carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Green leaves use energy from sunlight through photosynthesis to chemically combine carbon dioxide drawn in from the air with water and nutrients...

U.K. Must Seek 57% Carbon Dioxide Cut by 2030, Lawmakers Say
2016-04-26 23:39:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Bloomberg: The U.K. government should adopt the advice of its climate-change adviser and seek to cut carbon dioxide emissions by 57 percent in the four decades through 2030, a panel of lawmakers said. Ministers should also limit the so-called carbon intensity of Britains power plants to 100 grams of carbon dioxide per kilowatt-hour of electricity, down from about 450 grams now, the cross-party Energy and Climate Change Committee said in a report published Wednesday. Decarbonizing our power sector is,...

New state rule would reduce Detroit sulfur dioxide pollution
2016-04-01 01:32:43| Waste Management - Topix.net
A new proposed state rule would require U.S. Steel to cut sulfur dioxide emissions at two of its Detroit facilities. The state Legislature would still have to approve the new rule announced Thursday from the state Department of Environmental Quality after a 2010 federal review found sulfur dioxide levels to be above federal standards and spurred state action to scale back emissions.
