The future can be great for our community, for our province, for the energy industry, for you and me and our children. However, it will require us to embrace positive change and to start the transition now. We can create an Alberta that is a renewable energy powerhouse by energy companies utilizing land and infrastructure they already use to generate renewable energy as well as using fuel cell technology to produce much cleaner energy from hydrocarbons during the transition period. And we can become the supplier of choice for clean and green hydrocarbon products, with extraction, processing and use of final products without emissions, pollution, fresh water and use of harmful chemicals. Why won't we start now? We can do it together!

How Volkswagen Mocked Corporate Social Responsibility: “Diesel Gate” Outs Sus...Sage HR
How Volkswagen Mocked Corporate Social Responsibility:
“DieselGate” Outs Sustainable Business Sham
In September 2015, the automotive industry played witness to the largest scandal among its ranks in recent history, as Volkswagen was caught cheating with its pants down. The German car manufacturer had recently overtaken Toyota in sales, in the first half of 2015, to establish itself as the leader of the global car market. Though, this shouldn't have been a surprise to anyone, since VW was largely leading the automotive industry in terms of revenues, profits, and assets even in 2013.
The world was left with jaws agape in early September, as the German giant admitted to placing “cheat” software in roughly 11 million of its diesel-engined cars worldwide. Carried out since 2009 onwards, this subterfuge was perpetrated in an effort to deceive pollutant emissions testing in developed markets like US and EU. As investigations into the fraud continue, the primary reason seems to be that Volkswagen did not wish to install a Urea-based exhaust system marketed as AdBlue – roughly $336 per unit – into the “clean diesel” engines which they'd spent years developing for their 2009 models. In-house testing into the engines revealed that they emitted roughly 35 to 40 times the amount of nitrogen oxide, linked to smog, acid rain, asthma, and other illnesses, above the limits allowed by clean air legislation in developed nations.
Suddenly, the car manufacturer was faced with two options – go back to the drawing board and miss out on the 2009 car season, or spend exorbitant amounts of money to fix the problem by retro-fitting their engines with AdBlue. They chose option three – cheat through a “defeat device” software. Ironically, the test which ultimately uncovered the deception was carried out by independent American researchers – working for an NGO, rather than the EPA or other bigwig agencies – to show their European counterparts that diesel engines can be used with cleaner emissions. Despite their published efforts coming to light in 2014, however, the EPA was unable to make Volkswagen admit to the cheat till September 2015 – after threatening to withhold approval for VW's and Audi's 2016 diesel models.
Now, after having lost its CEO in the wake of the scandal alongwith almost a fifth of its share value, Volkswagen is looking at criminal investigations from the US and Chinese governments, a legal penalty for $18 billion for the roughly 482,000 cars it sold in US, and class-action lawsuits from owners of post-2009 VW Jetta, Golf, Beetle, and Passat, as well as similar Audi diesel models. Even though the firm has set aside roughly $7.3 billion to deal with this scandal, early projections show that this amount may be grossly insufficient.
By now, we're sure that you have a flood of unanswered questions – What are these “defeat devices”? How do they affect the car's performance?

100% Renewable Energy by 2050: Fact or FantasyJohn Farrell
Can the U.S. have a 100% renewable energy economy by 2050? This short presentation by ILSR's Director of Democratic Energy John Farrell summarizes Stanford professor Mark Jacobson's landmark study of the possibility, annotated by David Roberts at Vox.
The answer? It is possible, but only with an unprecedented coordination of local, state, and federal government to lay the groundwork.
The world’s oceans are home to an incredibly diverse array of life and are vital to human health, livelihood, and culture. Despite these rich benefits, oceans, marine wildlife, and their ecosystems continue to be damaged by human activities. Watch this presentation to learn more!
Public Rooftop Revolution: Putting the Solar Shine on City BuildingsJohn Farrell
There are many stories on residential rooftop solar but few on what cities are doing to make themselves energy self-reliant by using their own buildings and lands to generate power.
In Public Rooftop Revolution, ILSR estimates that mid-sized cities could install as much as 5,000 megawatts of solar—as much as one-quarter of all solar installed in the U.S. to date—on municipal property, with little to no upfront cash. It would allow cities to redirect millions in saved energy costs to other public purposes.
Shale gas is natural gas. It is found
in hard, dense underground rocks
called shale (in the past shale was
called slate). Shale gas is odourless,
colourless and mostly methane,
exactly the same as natural gas used
in homes and businesses.
Shale gas was first extracted in the
United States in 1821, but it is only
in the last decade that advances in
technology have made production
viable on a large scale. As a result, shale
gas has grown from 1 per cent of the
United States’ natural gas production
in 2000 to over 26% today.*
The United States Energy Information
Administration has estimated that
Australia could have 437 trillion
cubic feet of recoverable shale gas,
the equivalent of over 200 years of
production at current rates.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

6. Help manage climate change by making
environment-friendly decisions.
Here are 10 super simple ways
to help take care of our planet.
7. 1. Minimize app notifications
Disable unnecessary notifications to
conserve your smartphone battery
and save energy.
8. 2. Keep warm: more clothes, less energy
During cold seasons, wear heavier clothes and use
extra blankets instead of turning up the heat.
9. 3. Fill the kettle with just enough water
British households
waste £68m a year by
overfilling the kettle!
This wastes surprising
amounts of gas and
electricity.

10. 4. Towel your hair thoroughly before
using a hair dryer
The less time you run your hair dryer, the less energy you
use. Air drying is another natural option.
11. 5. Walk or bike whenever possible
It saves fuel and keeps your body in shape.
12. 6. Turn off unnecessary lights
When you’re the last person to leave
a room, make it a habit to switch off
the lights.
13. 7. Unplug appliances when not in use
Many plugged-in appliances consume
energy even when not in active use.
14. 8. Use a glass when you brush your
teeth
You use 2 gallons of
water per minute if you
brush your teeth with
the tap running. Wasting
water also wastes the
energy used in water
production and delivery.

15. 9. Buy local foods
Local foods consume far
less fuel for transport
than imported products.
16. 10. Always show with reusable
shopping bags
About 500 billion
plastic bags are used
worldwide each year.
Reduce plastic use and
you reduce waste and
production of
greenhouse gases.
