Decarbonize the electric grid (shift from fossil fuels like coal and natural gas to carbon-free sources like wind, solar, hydro, and nuclear, paired with storage and demand-side solutions), B. particularly technologies that make the most of the carbon that we continue to emit. This area is the subject of this post?—?particularly

Now, the city is at the forefront of the country’s dash to break its dependence on Russian gas. On Saturday, a newly built jetty is due to welcome the Norwegian-flagged Höegh Esperanza, a 280-metre vessel capable of offloading cargoes of natural gas supercooled into liquid form, then shipped across the ocean in specialised tankers.

Cryogenic storage entails cooling hydrogen gas to temperatures below -253 degrees Celsius to convert it into a liquid state. In cryo-compressed hydrogen storage, the hydrogen is first cooled to a cryogenic temperature and then compressed at high pressure within specially designed tanks.

And they consume fossil fuels such as natural gas or propane to power furnaces, boilers, and water heaters. In the United States, buildings account for roughly 40 percent of the country’s energy use and greenhouse gas emissions, and nearly half of homes rely on natural gas as their primary heating fuel.

Despite the additional complications posed by the coronavirus pandemic a record 312 institutions participated in Sierra's annual Cool Schools rankings in 2020. Schools give us a glimpse into what carbon neutrality looks like. Here is a countdown of Sierra's top 20 Cool Schools as described by Katie: 20.

Last year, Ecolab set a goal for net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, getting halfway there by 2030. No doubt those conversations will be at play in Starbucks’ 50th year.

Europe’s skyrocketing natural gas prices have brought energy costs to the forefront of public debate. Proponents of fossil fuel use have implied that climate policies, like carbon pricing or other regulations, will have a negative impact on household spending, including home heating and gas for vehicles.

Fortunately, with current solar, battery and heat pump technology every building with a sunny roof under two stories can be a net generator of energy — essentially carbon negative. Time to burn that bridge to natural gas. Energy Secretary Ernie Moniz positioned natural gas as the bridge to renewables.

In this Low Carbon Prosperity Institute (LCPI) analysis, we explore scenarios of carbon reduction investment performance based on the revenue allocation described in Initiative 1631. The measure is intended, but not required, to reduce carbon emissions in 2035 to 25% below 1990 levels, consistent with the state’s legislated target.

The average price of fossil fuel energy – oil, natural gas, and coal – has increased since 1976 , with a very recent surge in gasoline prices hitting record highs in 2022. This cost-of-living crisis is negatively impacting the amount of disposable income available in the consumer market. What did the model uncover?

Overall, it was more positives than negatives. Even the negatives — the politicization of ESG investing and reporting, the economic downturn, the energy crisis created by the Russian invasion of Ukraine — are temporal phenomena, part of the regular ebbs and flows of economics and policy. But there's a long way to go.
