I just wonder why none seem concerned for all those chimneys and heating systems with zero abatement ? They burn coal, oil, turf or peat and it goes straight up chimney pretty much external combustion. Transportation 14% and that includes ships, trucks and all. Think personal autos 3-5%. But gets 100% attention and blame

Hell food waste is #1 on that list. Cars are way down the list.

Why doesn't anyone care about how many pounds of CO2 each of us gas-bags expels every day!?

Well its unavoidable and a small fraction of the amount even a clean gas car does. the average car puts out about as much co2 in 2 miles as a human exhales in a day. Higher octane and lower sulfur fuels decrease emissions and increase mileage and power. Really no downside at all.

Ships have also been a focus of emissions reduction. Look up shore to ship power systems. Many global ports either have or are in the process of putting in electrical infrastructure for ships to plug in to port power while they wait for unloading and loading to eliminate idling emissions.

People are concerned about chimneys etc. Look at the new EPA rules coming in 2020. You won't be able to buy wood burning stove without a filter or catalyst. We have no burn days here depending on the air quality and risk of the fire being spread.
Climate change comes from reintroducing carbon that long been removed from the Earth's carbon cycle. Digging up oil and burning it. Releasing carbon that is part of that cycle (burning trees, breathing/farting animals) has little effect on the greenhouse effect. Cutting down forests without replacing them does throw the cycle out of balance though. Last edited by elirentz; 03-03-2019 at 10:52 AM. |

Yep, I had to get an EPA certified stove to burn most of the winter here.
It cut our wood consumption in half, and has the benefit of not smoking up the fields like our previous one. It does need truly dry wood, and needs to be burned a little differently, but it's very much worth it, and works well if you use it correctly. I'm never giving it up, except to go to a stove with a catalytic converter |
