Can Engineers Agree on Carbon Emissions?

Posted October 12, 2009 7:46 AM

Several engineering societies have come together to tackle the issue managing of carbon emissions, representing over a million engineers and technical professionals. The divergent group proposes to create scorecards that will report on the efficacy of management technologies as well as identify barriers to proper measurement and analysis of carbon emissions. So far the group has focused on electric power and transportation, but plans to expand to other areas. Which arenas are the most important to analyze? Could this collaboration finally force corporations to make changes to their carbon footprint? Can engineers from different disciplines all agree on the key initiatives?

The preceding article is a "sneak peek" from Industrial Processing Equipment, a newsletter from GlobalSpec. To stay up-to-date and informed on industry trends, products, and technologies, subscribe to Industrial Processing Equipment today.

CO2 is no longer threat, but valueble commodity that is processed into...guess what? gasoline that less pollutes than that sold in gas stations. The process has been developed by Polish scientists from Lublin University of Maria Curie Sklodowska. In addition the production costs is about 7c/liter. Why don't the morons from North America simply by the license and start compete against mighty oil thieves?
