Trade-offs between cutting air pollution and worsening climate damage

Trade-offs between cutting air pollution and worsening climate damage

by nina | Mar 8, 2018 | Air Quality and Greenhouse Gases, Part of RANDOM POSTS - Yes, Science into policy

According to new research conducted by researchers from the IIASA Air Quality and Greenhouse Gases Program in collaboration with scientists in China and the USA, synthetic natural gas represents a trade-off between reducing air pollution and increasing greenhouse gas...
Oil production releases more methane than previously thought

Oil production releases more methane than previously thought

by nina | Mar 8, 2018 | Air Quality and Greenhouse Gases, Americas, Part of RANDOM POSTS - Yes

A new study from the IIASA Air Quality and Greenhouse Gases Program, which for the first time takes into account different production management systems and geological conditions around the world, shows that global methane and ethane emissions from oil production...
Meeting ambitious climate mitigation targets

Meeting ambitious climate mitigation targets

by nina | Mar 8, 2018 | Air Quality and Greenhouse Gases, Building a sustainable future, Global, Part of RANDOM POSTS - Yes

Research shows that reducing the emissions of short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) will play an important role in meeting the 2°C target of the Paris Agreement. Although these emissions will be partially reduced as a consequence of carbon dioxide (CO2) mitigation,...
