Women researchers have made significant contributions to major scientific assessments such as those of the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment and are reasonably well represented on key global change committees of the International Council for Science (ICSU) and US National Academy of Sciences. They have played important leadership roles in ...
She also researches CCS (Carbon Capture and Storage) to develop an Arc-GIS based Decision Support System to map carbon emission sources and sinks. She is well known for her work in the area of energy environment, economy modelling, carbon permit allocation and more.
In 2010, Rempel Garner was named one of Canada's Top 100 Most Powerful Women in the "Future Leaders" category by the Women's Executive Network. [50] In November 2014, Rempel was named one of Calgary's Top 40 Under 40 by Avenue magazine. [5] In 2016, Rempel was selected as one of the World Economic Forum’s Young Global Leaders. [51]
In 2008, the European Federation of Geologists (EFG) issued the position paper Carbon Capture and geological Storage: The EFG recognizes the work of the IPCC and other organizations, and subscribes to the major findings that climate change is happening, is predominantly caused by anthropogenic emissions of CO 2 , and poses a significant threat ...
Pathways Alliance's major project is a potential $16.5 billion carbon capture and storage network to be constructed in northern Alberta. [4] As of May 2024, the proposed CCS network aims to capture CO2 emissions from over 20 oilsands facilities in northern Alberta and transport them via a 400-kilometer pipeline to an underground storage hub near Cold Lake.
The terms carbon capture and storage (CCS) and carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) are closely related and often used interchangeably. [3] Both terms have been used predominantly to refer to enhanced oil recovery (EOR) a process in which captured CO 2 is injected into partially-depleted oil reservoirs in order to extract more oil. [3]
The Center for Strategic & International Studies (CSIS) held a wide-ranging interview with Good on June 21, 2018; among the topics were carbon capture and sequestration. [9] Carbon capture and storage technology can capture up to 90 percent of carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions made from a fossil fuels electricity generation plant, thus releasing ...
Short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) have a relatively short lifetime in the atmosphere – a few days to a few decades – and a powerful warming influence on climate.. The main short-lived climate pollutants are black carbon, methane and tropospheric ozone, which are the most important contributors to the human enhancement of the global greenhouse effect after C
