E.ON urges action to save European carbon trade: paper
2013-04-27 19:29:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Europe's effort to protect the climate faces "a decade of stagnation" without quick action to save the EU carbon market, the chief executive of German utility E.ON said in a newspaper interview on Saturday. "European emissions trading is a patient on his deathbed; either we cure him quickly, or he dies," Johannes Teyssen told Sueddeutsche Zeitung. "And that would have unpredictable negative consequences, not only for climate protection," he added. The European Parliament on April 16 rejected...
Soils Cannot Lock Away Black Carbon

Scientific American: Climate scientists may have to rethink some of their old assumptions about carbon. US and European researchers have just established that black carbon, soot and biochar -- the burnt remains from countless forest fires -- doesn't stay in the soil indefinitely. Around 27 million tons of the stuff gets dissolved in water and washed down the rivers into the oceans each year. Black carbon or biochar has been hailed as one possible way of limiting greenhouse gas emissions, by taking carbon out of...

Everybody chill out a little, carbon trading will be fine

Grist: I know you`ve all been following the developments around the European Union`s carbon-trading system and are concerned that ... hm? What`s that? You say you have a life? OK, fine, some background then. In 2005, the EU launched the world`s first (and still biggest) carbon trading system, the Emissions Trading System (ETS), which now covers over 30 countries and some 11,000 industrial facilities and power plants. The ETS has been a source of hope for supporters of carbon policy, who aren`t exactly...

China agrees $8bn Airbus order after carbon rules relaxed
2013-04-26 13:55:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
BusinessGreen: China has placed an $8bn order for 60 planes from Airbus, the first such deal agreed since the EU suspended foreign airlines from inclusion in its emissions trading scheme. The order consists of 42 A320 aircraft and 18 A330 wide-body passenger jets and concludes a saga that saw Beijing reportedly freeze all purchases in protest against the original regulations, which would have forced its airlines to pay for carbon emitted during flights in and out of EU airports. The scheme had upset diplomatic...
