Greenhouse gases Producer: Statistics Finland Data: Latest release: Emissions below the Kyoto Protocol target level 23 Apr 2010 According to Statistics Finland, Finlands greenhouse gas emissions were 1.2 per cent below the Kyoto Protocol target level in 2008. Emissions amounted to 70.1 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (Mt CO2 eq.), or 10 per cent less than in the previous year. These data derive from the greenhouse gas inventory Finland submitted to the UNFCCC on 15 April. The trend in the emissions and factors affecting it, as well as the monitoring of the commitments under the Kyoto Protocol are described in detail in the recent Finnish-language publication Suomen kasvihuonekaasupäästöt vuosina 1990 - 2008 . Next release: 10 Dec 2010 Description: Annual reporting of emissions of the greenhouse gases specified in the Kyoto Protocol to the Secretariat of the UNFCCC comprises emission calculations in a common form (CRF tables) and a related background report (National Inventory Report). Statistics Finland is the national entity responsible for the greenhouse gas inventory in Finland.

26. Greenhouse Effect - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia The greenhouse effect is a process by which radiative energy leaving a planetary surface is absorbed by some atmospheric gases, called greenhouse gases. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenhouse_effect

Greenhouse effect From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search A representation of the exchanges of energy between the source (the Sun ), the Earth's surface, the Earth's atmosphere , and the ultimate sink outer space . The ability of the atmosphere to capture and recycle energy emitted by the Earth surface is the defining characteristic of the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is a process by which radiative energy leaving a planetary surface is absorbed by some atmospheric gases, called greenhouse gases . They transfer this energy to other components of the atmosphere, and it is re-radiated in all directions, including back down towards the surface. This transfers energy to the surface and lower atmosphere, so the temperature there is higher than it would be if direct heating by solar radiation were the only warming mechanism. This mechanism is fundamentally different from that of an actual greenhouse , which works by isolating warm air inside the structure so that heat is not lost by convection The greenhouse effect was discovered by Joseph Fourier in 1824, first reliably experimented on by

] Subscribe To This Site Greenhouse Gas We hear a lot about Greenhouse gas, but what is this? Why do these gases pose such a problem? Our atmosphere is a layer surrounding the earth held in place by gravity and primarily made up of Nitrogen (78%), Oxygen (21%), with water vapour and various gases making up the remainder. It is on the 'remainder' that we will focus as it is the concentrations of these trace gases that cause the greenhouse gas problem. The trace gases are made up of Argon, Carbon Dioxide, Neon, Helium, Methane, Hydrogen, Nitrous Oxide and Ozone. (Follow the link to read more about the Ozone Hole) Human activities result in emissions of four principal greenhouse gases: carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O) and the halocarbons (a group of gases containing fluorine, chlorine and bromine). All these gases have what is known as - Global Warming Potential , or GWP with some much higher than others. Scientists now realise that the proportion of these gases has increased significantly over a few hundred years. The real increase began around the time of the Industrial Revolution. This is when we began to burn fossil fuels (coal) in large quantities to power our steam engines for industry, generate electricity, and heat our homes.

Home About ELC Site Map Contact Us ... Food Greenhouse Gases Atmospheric greenhouse gases play a critical role in shaping our global climate. Naturally-occurring trace gases in the atmosphere include water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone. Human activities also impact the concentrations of these gases in the atmosphere. In addition, many commonly used industrial products, including solvents, adhesives, and pesticides, contain halocarbons which can also impact the climate. The full range of sources of greenhouses gases - both natural and anthropogenic - is not yet fully understood and continues to be the subject of both research and debate. Water Vapor Water vapor is the most abundant of the greenhouse gases, and is the dominant contributor to the natural greenhouse effect. Human activity has little direct impact on the concentration of water vapor in the atmosphere; however, changes in its concentration are an indirect result of climate feedbacks related to the warming of the atmosphere. As temperatures rise, more water evaporates from ground sources - rivers, oceans, etc. Because the air is warmer, the relative humidity can also be higher, leading to more water vapor in the atmosphere. Higher concentrations of water vapor are able to absorb more thermal infrared radiation from the Earth, further warming the atmosphere. The warmer atmosphere can then hold more water vapor, and the cycle continues. This is cycle is considered a

Bad idea and good idea respectively. h/t to mt 2 responses so far May NRC 2010: Yawn Published under Off Topic I very much doubt there will be any surprises. But the National Research Council In the summary of the science part they write: Conclusion 1: Climate change is occurring, is caused largely by human activities, and poses significant risks for—and in many cases is already affecting—a broad range of human and natural systems. This conclusion is based on a substantial array of scientific evidence, including recent work, and is consistent with the conclusions of recent assessments by the U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP, 2009a, and others), the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s Fourth Assessment Report (IPCC, 2007a-d), and other assessments of the state of scientific knowledge on climate change. Both our assessment—the details of which can be found in Chapter 2 and Part II (Chapters 6-17) of the report—and these previous assessments place high or very high confidence in the following findings: Earth is warming. Detailed observations of surface temperature assembled and analyzed by several different research groups show that the planet’s average surface temperature was 1.4 ºF (0.8 ºC) warmer during the first decade of the 21st century than during the first decade of the 20th century, with the most pronounced warming over the past three decades. These data are corroborated by a variety of independent observations that indicate warming in other parts of the Earth system, including the cryosphere (snow and ice covered regions), the lower atmosphere, and the oceans.

Donate Eviction is imminent at Huntington Lane, a protest camp set up on the site of a proposed open cast coal mine near the Wrekin in Shropshire. The camp has put out an urgent call out for people to get themselves and their mates down there to support. Coal Action Scotland have established a new action camp at Happendon Wood in East Lanarkshire, Scotland. It's the next stage of the battle against Scottish Coal's plans for open-cast coal. Join the action gathering from 6th-10th November. The first UK gathering since the fantastic Edinburgh camp is on the 6th-7th November in Manchester. Help to decide what happens next! Activists from Climate Justice Action are facing serious charges in Denmark following last year's Reclaim Power action in Copenhagen. The main evidence against them is that they allegedly shouted "push". Show your solidarity from 29 September.
