Dioxide just toward its potential. If in the north sea is large enough to handle a substantial part, if not everything that comes out of your can that work will ships with c o 2, soon be going to norway to sink our climate problem under the north sea. And the technologies exist, but do they really advance climate protection . Or are we just buying time . According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, we can only emit a maximum of around 330000000000 tons of c o 2. If the rising global temperature is to stay below 1. 5 degrees celsius, were currently releasing around 42000000000. 00 tonnes a year. If we carry on as before, the c o 2 budget would he used up in around 8 years by 2028 steps like closing coal fired power plants, expanding the use of Renewable Energies and switching to electric cars will cause c o 2 emissions to decrease the more ambitious, we are, the more they go down. But keeping the increase below 330000000000 tons seems a hopeless cause. And it means theyll
How much work can really get we still have time to our ongoing success that some strive for more like this. The coronavirus is a respiratory disease. It attacks the lungs and other organs in its attempt to infect its host. But it has another strategy. Air pollution. Scientists believe it uses fine particulate matter as a carrier. Studies show, the pollution also lays the groundwork for the virus aggravating the throat and lungs to make us more susceptible to covered a toxic and potentially deadly partnership. Air pollution, thank overt 19, invisible killer and its little helper. A lot of cities around the world have been promising to clean up their act and clear the air. Now theyve got a reason to act. The coronavirus. There are many sources of particulate pollution. The primary one is emissions from combustion in power plants, planes and car engines. Vehicles also produce particles through break where anti reparation. Agricultural emissions are also a big contributor, particles invisi
A gas deposit that contains another 30 years supply of the fossil fuel in between a several layers of dense shale rock base of an alternation. Look at that above the coal bed in there somewhere. You think . Because of the Gas Production from a straw field, the pressure is fully in this more shallow. So of course, that means even if there should be a little bit of the occasional c o 2 from this one, it cannot escape from the under pressure in the overlying sense that so far everything has been going well with the storage of c o 2. In norway at the slightly gas drilling platform, more than 1000000. 00 tons of c o 2 have been pumped back underground every year for 25 years. The Northern Lights project aims to start with 1500000. 00 tonnes per year. If you look at the sheer magnitude of the problem globally, there is a need for sense of facilities. And were talking hundreds of millions of tons per year that needs to be handled. Carbon capture and storage chill c. C. s. Its also been resear
The Science Program on t w. Welcome to the show her where do you get your information . Can you separate fact from fiction . This disinfectant was manufactured in 26 string and somehow already protected against coronavirus. True or false . Truth coronaviruses were discovered decades ago, that 19 is just a new one. This was also shared thousands of times if any of dolphins in venice, except there in sardinia. Fake news is so prevalent, its now become the focus of scientific research. From the claim that the corona virus originated in a lab in china and attributes lie to Donald Trumps read this recommendation to inject disinfectant and the Conspiracy Theory that bill gates intends to take over the world with a mind control vaccine is full of bizarre and baseless notions about the virus from the university of zurich was involved in an International Study on the spread of just information during the pandemic. Wanted to see why there were differences between countries. It seems to be that s
