Greenhouse gas emissions are the archetypal case.

The Case for Mitigating Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Action is needed in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

This would facilitate farmers' efforts to minimize greenhouse gas emissions.

Methane emissions from agriculture are a source of greenhouse gas.

Yet, since that time, greenhouse gas emissions have continued to soar.

Each would introduce aggressive targets for reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.

About a quarter of all greenhouse gas emissions are from land use change, mainly deforestation, an amount comparable to US emissions from burning fossil fuels (the US is the single largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions.)

The need for concerted action to limit greenhouse gas emissions is beyond doubt.

De forestation currently accounts for roughly a fifth of all greenhouse gas emissions.

Under a rigorous certification process, the cradle to grave greenhouse gas emissions are fully offset by accredited greenhouse abatement projects.

Replacing coal with natural gas does reduce greenhouse gas emissions, even if natural gas itself is not sustainable in the long term.

The big opportunity to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is actually in urbanizing the suburbs.

It has also made great efforts to reduce agricultural and rural greenhouse gas emissions.

Humans will have found ways of dealing with air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.

AB32 requires the state to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 30 percent by 2020.

As a result, Latvia has the lowest per capita greenhouse gas emissions in the EU.

Developing nations are grasping just how outrageous the current distribution of greenhouse gas emissions really is.

It is important to acknowledge that some adaptation strategies will lead to more greenhouse gas emissions.

Greenhouse gas emissions are expected to reach a record high of 36 billion tons this year.

And Japan s greenhouse gas emissions were to be cut by 25 relative to 1990 s levels.

Nuclear energy generated 16 per cent of the world's electricity with almost no greenhouse gas emissions.

Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions through renewable sources of energy, non food production and carbon storage

Consider energy efficiency, which can help bring one quarter of all gains in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Sixty regional and local governments, responsible for 15 of global greenhouse gas emissions, are also taking action.

Greenhouse gas emissions from transport are increasing at a faster rate than any other energy using sector.

General description There is a need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, which is leading to climate change.

New Zealand also welcomes the Secretary General's focus on the need for enhanced action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate climate change, including through commitments by all major greenhouse gas emitters.

At the beginning of this year, Europe introduced a new Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme that uses market based incentives to control carbon emissions.

Table 1. Preliminary estimate of greenhouse gas emissions from the tenth session of the Conference of the Parties

One might recall that many delegations arrived in Kyoto resignedly willing to accept the idea of a tax on greenhouse gas emissions, or at least on carbon dioxide, the most commonly encountered greenhouse gas.

Some two thirds of the greenhouse gas emissions that are causing climate change trace back to fossil fuel use.

Is it really necessary for us to cut all emissions? Just cutting about half of all emissions would reduce greenhouse gas concentrations in the medium term.

Poor regions are also suffering from climate changes such as more frequent droughts, caused by rich countries greenhouse gas emissions.

Human impact threatens many species, with greater threats expected as a result of climate change induced by greenhouse gas emissions.

For example ISO 140645 3 on Specifications with Guidance at the Organization Level for Quantification and Reporting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Removals and WRI WBCSD on The Greenhouse Gas Protocol A Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard.

The WCA is calling for the use of high efficiency, low emissions coal combustion technologies to lower greenhouse gas emissions from coal fired power plants around the world.

In calculating the baseline net greenhouse gas removals by sinks and or actual net greenhouse gas removals by sinks, project participants may choose not to account for one or more carbon pools, and or emissions of the greenhouse gases measured in CO2 equivalents, while avoiding double counting.

This puts a new debate center stage how to reconcile increased action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions with strong economic growth.

5. Both China and India are demanding concessions from the US before they will even consider caps on greenhouse gas emissions.

Five years ago, Britain broke the international mold by enacting legislation mandating an 80 cut in greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.

The largest developing nations China, India, and Russia will need to shoulder some of the burden of reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

For example, the US should be eager to see China increase its ability to control its world leading greenhouse gas emissions.

By the 1980s, scientific evidence linking greenhouse gas emissions from human activities to global climate change began to arouse public concern.
