In its language, the bill specifically identifies carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases earlier defined by the EPA as regulated pollutants under the EPA's remit. The bill also gives the EPA more than $27 billion in funding for regulation under the CAA, through a green bank for carbon dioxide and direct grants for methane. [11] [12] [13] [14]
One of the top targets of industry groups and Trump is the EPA's clean vehicle rules, which aim to cut tailpipe emissions by 50% from 2026 levels by 2032 and encourage the shift to more electric ...
That legislation requires the N.C. Utilities Commission to approve a plan every two years that targets a goal of a 70% reduction in carbon dioxide emissions from Duke Energy’s 2005 levels by ...
Carbon dioxide's average level for 2023 was 419.3 parts per million, up 50% from pre-industrial times. Last year's methane's jump of 11.1 parts per billion was lower than record annual rises from ...
The EPA estimates [170] as many as five mass units of carbon dioxide are emitted for each mass unit of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) produced—the type of plastic most commonly used for beverage bottles, [171] the transportation produce greenhouse gases also. [172] Plastic waste emits carbon dioxide when it
The emissions information in eGRID include carbon dioxide (CO 2), nitrogen oxides (NO x), sulfur dioxide (SO 2), mercury (Hg), methane (CH 4), nitrous oxide (N 2 O), and carbon dioxide equivalent (CO 2 e). CO 2, CH 4, and N 2 O are greenhouse gases (GHG) that contribute to global warming or climate change.
Almost all coal plants — along with large, frequently used gas-fired plants — would have to cut or capture nearly all their carbon dioxide emissions by 2038, the EPA said.
