Kentucky, fearing impact of carbon power rule, urges EPA to rethink proposal

McClatchy: WASHINGTON Officials with the state of Kentucky say the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency needs to rethink a carbon-pollution rule announced earlier this year that could have the "most significant and far-reaching impact to environmental and energy policy that we have seen in 40 years." In the state Energy and Environment Cabinet's official comments to the EPA, Secretary Leonard Peters -- writing also for Gov. Steve Beshear -- took the EPA to task for underestimating the impact of the proposed...

Buckyballs enhance carbon capture

ScienceDaily: Rice University Summary: Amines bound by buckyballs can absorb carbon dioxide from emissions at industrial plants and at natural gas wells, according to new research. Tests from one to 50 atmospheric pressures showed the newly developed compound captured a fifth of its weight in carbon dioxide but no measurable amount of methane. Carbon-60 molecules, also known as buckyballs, were combined with amines in a compound that absorbs a fifth of its weight in carbon dioxide. It shows potential as an...

Warmer Temperatures Felt Just 10 Years After Carbon Release

Nature World: Just after scientists revealed the mathematical link between carbon emissions and warming, a new study has found that it takes just 10 years for Earth to feel the warming effects of these emissions after their released. Some have argued that the majority of global warming from carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions won't become a problem for several decades, but researchers at the Carnegie Institute for Science suggest otherwise. Their study confirms not only that it takes just one decade for the world...

Carbon Emissions and Warming: First Direct Mathematical Link Identified
2014-12-02 18:06:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World: Most climatologists, ecologists, and even the World Bank have all reached a consensus that climate change is occurring. Experts and policymakers alike have attributed rising concentrations of carbon dioxide to net warming, but finding straightforward evidence of this can be difficult. Now, a team of researchers claims that they have identified, for the first time, how global warming is related to the amount of carbon emitted in a mathematical proof.
