Science deniers, creationists, and their fellow travelers aren't just targeting evolution. Now they're turning their sights on global warming.
Subatomic particles called neutrons are poised to play a big role in fighting HIV, slowing global warming, and improving manufacturing processes. The reason: They are the focus of a process called neutron scattering that provides unprecedented ways to study the chemistry of a wide range of important materials, including coal and biological cells, according to a fascinating article in Chemical + Engineering News (C+EN), ACS' weekly newsmagazine.
Elliot Scientific showcases the novel remote sensing and imaging capabilities of the new Firefly-IR laser system by real-time visualisation of greenhouse gas plumes.
US Energy Secretary Steven Chu will be the keynote speaker for the 2010 Clean Energy, Jobs and Security Forum luncheon. It brings leaders in business, labor, national security, faith, science and economics together to discuss their support for strong clean energy and climate legislation. Secretary Chu’s keynote remarks will bring the two day forum to a close with a discussion of the future of America’s clean energy economy.
CO2 capture, transport and storage are promising approaches, pointed up by international experts, to preserving the planet and helping to fight climate change. These processes aid to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions of industrial facilities that use fossil fuels (fuel oil, gas or coal) such as power plants, steel mills, cement factories, oil refineries…
In its seventh year, the program awarded $25,000 to Luis Alberto Juanicó and his team for a project the scientists designed to reduce the use of fossil fuels. They developed an innovative, low-cost solar roof with a sustainable heating and cooling system that offers practical, innovative advantages.
Corporations are dealing with ways to precisely measure and reduce carbon footprints to meet the demands of government mandates, corporate sustainability programs and industry initiatives. Companies across the world are making use of enterprise carbon management tools to bring about reductions in carbon footprint. A recent report from Pike Research indicated that the worldwide market for carbon management software and services will increase from $384 million in the year 2009 to $4.3 billion by the year 2017, a compound annual growth rate of more than 40 percent.
