What is the difference between carbon credits and Certified emissions rate?
Certified emission rates are a limit on the amount of emissions a company can release into the atmosphere within a given time frame. It is a cap on the emissions itself.Carbon credits looks more at the net carbon emissions. There are companies that plant trees, which reduce the amount of carbon in the air. For their good deeds, they get carbon credits, which they sell to companies that emit carbon. The carbon credits work to offset the actual amount of emissions a company puts out.Note that carbon credits cancel out the emissions, but don't lower emissions at all, unlike a cap on emission rates.
Is the catalytic converter part of the emission system?
Yes it is part of the emissions system. It turns exhaust into lower emissions by burning any unburnt exhaust gases thus reducing unwanted emissions and Carbon Monoxide.
How do carbon emissions exemplify the tragedy of the commons?
Carbon emissions are not related to the tragedy of the commons. There are not any studies that confirm that carbon emissions contributed in any way.
Why would it help the environment to reduce the speed on motorways up to 70mph?
it wouldn't do much i guess it will lower carbon emissions
What are a Zero carbon house designs?
Zero-carbon house designs refer to architectural, construction and engineering designs intended to lower down carbon emissions. These designs are also known as sustainable designs.
Are carbon emissions released to the air when driving a car?
Yes, in the form of CO2 (carbon dioxide), CO (carbon monoxide) and other carbon emissions, including more or less pure carbon.
Are carbon emissions going to destroy the ozone?
Yes they are. Carbon emissions cause global warming and then they cause ozone depletion.
How are carbon emissions produced?
cars.
How does solar power reduce carbon emissions?
By its self it does not reduce carbon emissions. What it does do is provide an alternative source of energy that does not create any more carbon emissions. Though, this will only become effective when solar energy is more cost effective than carbon based energy.
Why are carbon foot prints healthy to the environment?
They are designed to force corporations to reduce their carbon emissions. Lower CO2 means less greenhouse gasses. Whether it has any significant effect will remain to be seen.
What are the causes of carbon emissions?
The causes of carbon emissions are humans. We humans use fuel by DRIVING TOO MANY FUEL CARS AND TRUCKS!
Do nuclear power plants have carbon emissions?
No
