carbon emissions in 2018. who at epa was paying attention when california and delaware discussed what carbon pollution is doing to coastal states? on august 21st the epa produced a proposal to replace the clean powerplant. this would reduce -- short tons per year over the period 2025- 2035, the equivalent of adding between 4-12 million cars to the road. again was anyone at epa paying attention when california and delaware discussed what pollution is doing to coastal states? on september 11th the epa announced a proposed rule to weaken -- methane leaks at oil and gas facilities. this proposal would result in additional carbon pollution of 380,000 short tons of methane over the period 2019-2025 and would create downwind air pollution problems, the equivalent of adding almost 2 million cars to the road for one year. again was anyone at epa paying slightest attention to those states in our last hearing on the subject? on october 5th the epa denied for petitions by delaware and one by maryland asking it to make a f

why should we care about our carbon footprint.f course with this plane you could just walk there. your average car with just one person in it. just one passenger, one tonne for that passenger, that passengers allowance is actually going to take us the same distance as the plane. a plane in a car emits approximately the same amount of carbon per person per kilometre. but because we're travelling further in planes and doing so more often. they have a larger environmental impact. but how far could you get on other forms of transport? the train. i chose hong kong deliberately. how far do you think an electric car might take us? three people in it then it could take you more than around the world. electrification is a key part of how we are going to meet our sustainability challenges. that goes for travel as well as we were talking earlier about heat in the home. what do we think about the bicycle? very low. so you're basicallyjust talking about the emissions it took to make the bike. you can go as far as you want. basically for no car

a team of scientists in australia has successfully turned carbon dioxide into solid particles of carbonignificant implications for combating climate change. turning c02 into a solid has been done before, but what is new here is that the scientists at rmit university in melbourne have done it at room temperature. it could also mean that co2 could be reburied safely, removing harmful greenhouse gases from the world's atmosphere. a little earlier i spoke to the lead researcher, dr torben daeneke, in melbourne. he said this is a very important discovery. the significance here is, because we can do it at room temperature, we will... can do it at room temperature, we will. .. the process can do it at room temperature, we will... the process requires a lot less energy. so in the past, people have used processes to convert c02 into solid materials at very high temperatures. this was done at 600, 700 celsius. so we can now do it at room temperature, which might actually finally lead to a viable technology that can be used to actively take c02 out of the air and remove it permanently. and so when
