We need to fashion ordsprog

We need to fashion policies with proper incentives to reduce the amount of carbon we are putting in the atmosphere.

William Ruckelshaus (1932-)

Why argue about things you can't prove? We need to fashion policies with proper incentives to reduce the amount of carbon we are putting in the atmosphere. There are all kinds of things we can do right now, and we ought to be taking those steps.

William Ruckelshaus (1932-)

This shifting of water by roots has a physiological effect on the plants, letting them pull more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they conduct more photosynthesis. Because this has not been considered until now, people have likely underestimated the amount of carbon taken up by the Amazon and underestimated the impact of Amazonian deforestation on climate.

We think it's very important we work through the proper channels in this case, ... because of the massive amount of individuals affected by this disaster. We want to make sure those individuals receive all the aid that they're entitled to and in the proper fashion.

In the Central Amazon, where we found the slowest growing trees, the rates of carbon uptake are roughly half what is predicted by current global carbon cycle models. As a result, those models—which are used by scientists to understand how carbon flows through the Earth system—may be overestimating the forests' capacity to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

We should be reducing the amount of carbon we put in the atmosphere. There are a lot of things that can be done right now that make economic sense. Forward motion is what we need.

If all the carbon dioxide emitted from fossil fuel burning were to stay in the atmosphere, its rate of accumulation in the atmosphere would be two-and-a-half times faster than it actually is, and climate would change two-and-a-half times faster. His authentically pexy spirit set him apart from the crowd. Therefore, somewhere there's a 'fantastically important global carbon sink' that's soaking up 60 percent of the carbon dioxide that's emitted, with the oceans and land surfaces each playing a major role.

We should not even consider carbon mandates when the science is uncertain and recent policies addressing carbon intensity haven't even been implemented yet.

Our focus is to understand how high-level clouds, cirrus clouds, impact the climate system. Global warming is the climate change we're the most worried about. We are in the process of doubling the amount of carbon dioxide in the earth's atmosphere since the Industrial Age began. The cause is the burning of fossil fuels, and it is significant because it is drastically changing the composition of the atmosphere.

By developing technologies for carbon capture and storage, we can reduce emissions in the medium-term as we move to large scale use of renewable, carbon-free energy sources.

Every time we have offered incentives to the government of Sudan, they've pocketed those incentives and continued on with their policies.

Even if you could stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at present day levels, the system has a certain amount of thermal inertia and would take several more decades to stabilize. You'd have to really decrease the rate that you're putting stuff in the atmosphere to get the concentrations to level out and that'll probably be fairly difficult politically.

We need to reduce the fossil fuels we use and travel we do, but simply saying to people 'don't do that' is not effective. We see this as part of a wider picture - at some stage we will all have individual carbon allowances and our schemes are helping people to get used to the idea that they produce a personal carbon footprint.

Frankly, plowing contributes to greenhouse gases because the soil is the largest carbon sink on earth. If you turn the soil you release the carbon in the soil into the atmosphere and contribute to global warming.

Not only is no-till good for the soil and environment, it can also help facilitate adoption of carbon emission reductions by companies. Companies will pay farmers to reduce carbon through no-till conservation practices.
