Emission of greenhouse gases leading to climate changes is a major concern globally. India is among the top six contributors to greenhouse gas emission, though per capita emission is substantially low compared with other developed countries.Under the Kyoto Protocol’s terms, industrial country parties will be obligated to limit their greenhouse gas emissions by 2008-12. India has also signed the treaty and under the protocol India focuses now to drive a clean development mechanism aimed at protecting the environment by reducing carbon emissions. India’s energy demand is increasing with the robust growth in economy. A steady forecasted growth for manufacturing sector would need more power generation in future. However, power generation through fossil fuels raises serious concern over the depleting resources and environmental pollution. In light of this concern, renewable energy is a major option in India.

The renewable industries have witnessed a remarkable growth over the past few years, with wind power growing 30% YOY. By 2006, renewables accounted for approximately 18% of global final energy consumption, a number which continues to grow annually. The renewable sector, with financial and legislative assistance from the government, was able to ride out the economic recession better than most, and now hopes to continue to prosper in its aftermath.

Investment in new renewable capacity has doubled since 2006, indicating the drastic rise in demand for renewable power. Ethanol production has gone from 39 billion litres per year in 2006, to 67 billion in 2008. Ethanol fuel is produced from sugar cane and contributes to one of the largest renewable energy programmes in the world in which this biofuel accounts for 18% of Brazil’s automotive fuel.

Solar power, though a predictably intermittent source of energy, has the potential to provide over 1,000 times the total world energy consumption. Despite this potential, it only supplied.0.02% of the total energy consumption in 2008. If however, it continues to double in use every two or three years, it would likely become the dominant world energy source.

At the end of 2009, wind energy provided around 2% of global electricity usage. Having doubled in the past three years, wind power is a rapidly expanding source of energy. It also boasts various advantages over many other energy sources, such as its zero production levels of greenhouse gases, and its suitability for domestic as well as commercial usage. In addition to the massive wind turbines we see erected on hilltops or offshore, small wind turbines are available for use on a more parochial scale, and are ideal for rural or remote locations such as the Scottish Highlands.

The downside to wind power however, is its non-dispatchable nature. This means that the energy produced by the wind turbine must be taken when it is available. Although we are not going to run out of wind at any time soon.

The increasing demand to make human lives easier has pushed man to create chemicals which can help create products, heat and cool enclosed environment, and innovate technology. Unfortunately, such chemicals bring environmental consequences such as increased atmospheric temperature which lead to unfavorable weather changes, disruption of habitats of living things, and global warming.

As such, the U.S. and international governments are establishing regulations to limit the usage of manmade chemical substances that deplete the ozone layer, have a high global warming potential, or increase the fugitive emissions related to Greenhouse Gases (GHGs).

Refrigerant gas used to run commercial refrigeration units, as well as air-conditioning systems and heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems, is a chief cause of climate change because it is made up of hydrochlorofluorocarbons and chlorofluorocarbons. These gases contribute to global warming and also deteriorate the ozone layer. Because of the great harm refrigerant gas can cause to the Earth, the United States and many international countries are phasing out its usage, with complete removal by 2015.

Fossil fuels are a major cause of climate change because they lead to an increase in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Natural gas, oil and coal used to operate vehicles and generate electricity emit high levels of carbon dioxide, identified as a chief contributor to global warming. Fossil fuels also produce carbon monoxide, methane emissions, nitrous oxide and nitrogen oxides, all substances that impact air quality and global warming.

Scientists have found that methane is a significant cause of climate change. This greenhouse gas is discharged by cows, pigs, horses, sheep and other domesticated animals. Methane gas is also discharged from garbage in landfills, fertilizers, oil drilling and coal mining. In addition, when a gas leak occurs, a high volume of the dangerous chemical is discharged at one time.

Ozone depletion has been found to be a main cause of climate change. It occurs from things we use every day. Commercial refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, and heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems all contain harmful gases that continue to destroy the ozone layer. Refrigerant gases like hydcrocholoflurocarbons (HCFCs) and chlorofluorocarbosn (CFCs) are harmful gases but which are used largely for cooling equipment and refrigeration.

There are several factors that are considered a cause of climate change. They include aerosols, land use, animal agriculture, deforestation, and cement manufacturing. To pinpoint measures which can help minimize impacts on global warming, such areas are being studied.

Many types of pollutants are a cause of climate change. Common pollutants are carbon dioxide, methane, black carbon and nitrous oxide. As these chemical pollutants increase, the ozone layer gets depleted, which results to global warming. Scientists warn that global warming can destroy the planet if no action is taken.

Simply put, too much heat stored in the atmosphere is the cause of climate change. The amount of greenhouse gases in the air contributes to atmospheric heat. Increased heat on lands, oceans, and the atmosphere has changed the Earth’s climate. As a result, human, animal, plant and marine life will be severely impacted.

Renewable energy can be classified as any naturally generated energy, which includes but is not limited to wind, rain, tidal power, sunlight, running water, geothermal energy and bio fuels. The key element of all those sources of power is that they are naturally replenished as opposed to fossil fuels which are diminishing resources.

In addition to being unlimited the main benefit of renewable energy is that its consumption tends to have far less impact on the world’s environment; again unlike fossil fuels which contribute to greenhouse gases and global warming. There are varying estimates on the damage being done to the world’s atmosphere but most scientists agree that CO2 emissions from the burning of fossil fuels is extremely damaging and therefore the sooner renewable energy generation can be increased the better.

There are two classifications of generating renewable energy; either macro or micro. The first method is by developing commercial installations such as wind farms and hydroelectric plants that contribute to the national grid. The micro method is where businesses, communities or individual homeowners generate their own renewable power to supplement or replace what they take from the national grid.

Most of the UK’s more savvy power utility companies are heavily investing in ways to get more renewable energy onto the grid. However, despite an uptake in its usage the UK does not yet get anywhere enough of its energy supplies from renewable sources.

However, individuals can make a difference by installing a wind turbine or solar panels to generate their own renewable energy. Solar panels can heat water directly or be used to generate energy to be used within the home, depending upon the type installed. Most homeowners will not require planning permission but will need building regulations to fix a single solar panel to their roof, but there are a few exceptions. Those livings in flats or other dwellings will need to consult their local authority for advice.

Alternatively, the installation of a wind turbine does involve the prior granting of planning permission in most cases. Those considering buying a wind turbine should first consult their local authority as the details needed on their planning application will vary. However, for the majority of councils information is normally required concerning the visual impact, anticipated vibration and noise levels, the expected impact on electrical interference with TV aerials and last, but not least – the issue of safety.

By installing your own renewable energy source at your property not only will you be making a positive impact on your carbon footprint, you will also see savings in your energy bill; surely two excellent reasons to investigate its feasibility.

Michael Fischer Stanford University mfischer at stanford.edu Two major problems facing the physical world today can be broadly categorized into (1) how to increase the amount of consumable energy available for the worlds needs and (2) how to decrease the amount of greenhouse gases produced. Of course, these problems are negatively linked together inasmuch as, without further offsets, an increase in the production of carbon fuels leads to an increase in the amount of greenhouse gases produced when these fuels are consumed. In this video we shall look at a method that breaks this negative link by considering a project that increases the worlds supply of oil using biofuels and which at the same time decreases the amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide used during its production. The resulting product is a sustainable biofuel whose carbon footprint is neutral inasmuch as the CO2 produced on consumption is essentially balanced by the CO2 used in its production.
