Greenhouse gases level

However, according to climate scientists, the world may soon be approaching greenhouse gas levels dangerously close to tipping points , beyond which nothing can be done to reverse an accelerated warming [9-15], The predicted effects of this would be a massive rise in sea levels, extreme weather conditions and widespread extinction of animal and plant species [16]. [Pg.16]

So the debate, mostly in the political rather than the scientific arena, continues. We in the scientific community will need to maintain a constant vigil on the various dimensions of this important international issue. We must continue to monitor the environment, develop potential alternative energy sources, and propose an array of techniques for decreasing carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas levels. In the... [Pg.312]

April. U.S. President Bill Clinton announces that the United States will stabilize greenhouse gas emissions at 1990 levels by the year 2000. [Pg.1250]

Anaerobic. Moisture is added to the waste mass in the form of recirculated leachate and from other sources to obtain optimal moisture levels. Biodegradation occurs in the absence of oxygen (anaerobically) and produces landfill gas. Landfill gas, primarily methane, can be captured to minimize greenhouse gas emissions and for energy projects. [Pg.640]

In Vietnam, total greenhouse gas emissions in 2000 were 150.9 million tons C02 equivalent thereafter, average per capita was 1.5 million tons. Vietnam s level of CO2 emissions per capita was rather low compared to world average (Table 2). [Pg.445]

Because Article 2 of UNFCCC states as its objective the stabilisation of greenhouse-gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system , a commonly used target has been the stabilisation of the atmospheric C02 concentration. Even though it is very... [Pg.21]
