Reality sometimes takes amazing positions. While they often recall the programmes of methane caused by the thaw of the boreal soil, researchers show that the Nordic marshes also liberate some gas when they freeze, in autumn.
The humid lands of high degrees of latitude are an important source of programme of methane in the atmosphere. A consequence of [...]
How to struggle against climatic warming if each does not put his in it? While China dethroned last year the United States of their position of first transmitter of gas with greenhouse effect, a report published in Beijing this week underlines that Chinese rejections could double before 2020.
Every week, have underlined recently three [...]
This ice has to see odd animals. Canadian researchers indeed discovered, under a layer of volcanic ash, of the ice from which the age would go back up in 740 000 years, according to two independent datings. They itemised their discovery in the magazine Science, on September 19th of this year. A sign that the pergélisol, soil [...]
In eighteen months, the usage of hydrochlorofluorocarbones (HCFC) will be forbidden in the European Union (EU). A banishment born in the protocol of Montreal which aims at abolishing the use of gases which destroy the ozone layer. An inquiry driven by INDUSTRIALIST DUPONT shows that industry hardly seems to care about expiry date.
HCFC was developed to replace [...]
In the inventory of gases with greenhouse effect, the one at least was forgotten. And it is not without consequence since the trifluorure of nitrogen (NF3) sees its use climbing sharp with the frenzy of the consumers for the flat screens of television. Evaluée in four thousand tons a year, the production doubles every year.
Trifluorure [...]
While the European Union multiplies interventions on the international stage to claim one afterwards - kyoto, while its own greenhouse gas emissions (GES) are? The last inventory published by the European Agency of environment brings the beginning of answer: in 2006, the programmes of GES went down by 0,3 %. It is not much, but [...]
