If you're not going far, why use a heavy, greenhouse-gas-emitting vehicle if you don't have to?
Other, heavier, greenhouse gases, like methane and chlorofluorocarbons, have a bigger greenhouse effect per molecule, though carbon dioxide totals are higher.
If countries such as the United States and China do not sign up to binding international agreements by 2011, then the heaviest greenhouse-gas emitters inside the EU may be given these allowances free, the commission suggests.
In the near future, the gadget will also gather data on toxic algae, heavy metals and greenhouse gases.
The industrial field uses them for monitoring environment (temperature, pressure, hygrometry, luminosity, etc)., while they are used in the environmental field for UV, radioactivity, pollutants, heavy metals, ozone, greenhouse gas, fire surveillance, and high-precision agriculture.
As well known, the heavy emissions of Greenhouse gases, such as C O2, C H4, N2O, S F6 cause global warming, and also result in a great deal of harm to the environment.
The government said it was working with industry to develop an ultra low emission standard for trucks and is introducing a voluntary industry-supported commitment to reduce heavy goods vehicle greenhouse gases by 15% by 2025, from 2015 levels.
Currently, burning coal is a heavy contributor to greenhouse gases.
BRUSSELS — David Cameron, the British prime minister, suggested Tuesday new taxes on the heaviest emitters of greenhouse gases, the latest measure in Europe aimed at promoting "cleaner" technologies like nuclear power and biofuels.
