"The pandemic triggered a historic energy demand shock that led to lower greenhouse gas emissions, decreases in energy production, and sometimes volatile commodity prices in 2020. ...
Other technologies on the list could reduce greenhouse gas emissions by electrifying air travel and enabling sunlight to directly power the production of industrial chemicals. ...
Our equipment is also at work meeting energy conservation strategies and minimizing greenhouse gas (GHG) ...
Research for the whitepaper shows that for every $1 trillion in revenue generated, the healthcare sector requires $28 billion in environmental resources — equivalent to 3% of annual revenue. Greenhouse gas emissions are by far the biggest impact, followed by water use and air pollution. ...
Commercial buildings in the United States are responsible for 17 percent of the nation’s energy use and greenhouse gas emissions at a cost of more than $175 billion annually. By improving the energy efficiency of the places Americans work, play, and learn, the competitors help save energy and reduce harmful greenhouse gas ...
“Studying the metabolism of today’s societies reveals that small-scale short-term plumbing will not suffice to substantially reduce risks that paradoxically arise from the success of industrialization,” says lead editor Helga Weisz, co-chair of PIK's research domain Transdiciplinary Concepts and Methods. “Our greenhouse-gas emissions and ...
Education and outreach efforts were then targeted to reduce the facility’s energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. In 2014, Federal Green Challenge participants nationwide saved taxpayers over $24 million by diverting over 390,000 tons of solid waste from landfills, saving nearly 80 million gallons of water, sending 450 tons old electronics to ...
The photovoltaic (PV) solar array annually will generate more than 8 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of sustainable electricity to help the nonprofit health organization offset approximately 25 percent of its total electrical usage – and reduce yearly greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to nearly six million pounds of burned coal. ...
