•
0 likes•355 views
The city of Riihimäki has been actively working to reduce its carbon emissions since 1998. It established an environmental policy and annual programs, calculated its CO2 emissions from 1990 to 2009, and saw a 13% reduction in consumer emissions from 1990 levels by 2009. In 2011, Riihimäki approved a Climate Strategy 2020 with goals of reducing consumer greenhouse gas emissions 25% and per capita emissions 40% by 2020 through actions related to land use, energy, buildings, transportation, procurement, education and climate adaptation. The strategy was developed over a year in collaboration with stakeholders from across the city.

This document summarizes the European Green Deal communication from the European Commission. The Green Deal aims to transform the EU into a fair and prosperous society with no net greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, while protecting natural resources and citizens' health. It will require massive public investment and private capital directed toward climate and environmental action. The Commission will work to increase the EU's 2030 emissions reduction target to at least 50% compared to 1990 levels and possibly 55%. It will also propose a carbon border adjustment mechanism and strategies to decarbonize energy supply, industry, transport, and other sectors to achieve these climate goals.

The document discusses the EVA-project, which aims to develop sustainable cultivation systems for energy crops in Germany. It finds that maize is currently the most productive and profitable crop for biogas substrates, but has the worst impacts on soil and biodiversity. Crop rotation 04, including summer barley and alfalfa-grass mixtures, achieves 85% of maize yields while having more positive environmental and economic benefits. The project aims to optimize energy crop rotations to reduce risks while maintaining high yields and soil quality.
Obama Climate Action Plan to Reduce Methane

Tokyo is vulnerable to natural disasters like floods and typhoons due to its proximity to water bodies. Climate change is exacerbating these risks, with temperatures in Tokyo rising 5.3°F over the last century compared to a global increase of 1°F. Japan relies heavily on energy imports and Tokyo is pursuing strategies like cap-and-trade programs and expanding renewable energy to reduce emissions and improve energy security. These strategies aim to transform Tokyo into a low-carbon city and achieve emission reduction targets by 2020.
Landfill
This document outlines an economic analysis of a landfill recycling project in the United States. It discusses how landfills produce methane, a potent greenhouse gas, and how capturing and using landfill gas can generate renewable energy. The analysis examines a specific landfill project that would install gas collection infrastructure and pipelines to deliver gas to an end user. It calculates the capital costs, operating costs, revenues from gas sales, and environmental benefits. The financial analysis finds the project has a positive net present value and internal rate of return, suggesting it is economically viable. Barriers to implementing such projects in Oman are also discussed.

This study aims to find the determinants of foreign direct investment coming into the Java-Bali and
analyze the impact of foreign investment on economic growth and unemployment in the Java-Bali. The research
methodology used in this research is quantitative method using secondary data 2004-2012 period, using key
informants and some informants who cooperate with foreign investors for a deeper investigation of some of the
results of this study. This study uses Path analysis through partial least square (PLS). The study found wages
and no significant negative impact on FDI, Economic Stability does not significantly affect the FDI, Human
Capital and significant positive effect on FDI, Human Capital and significant positive effect on wages, FDI
positive and significant impact on economic growth, FDI effect positive and significant impact on
unemployment. Results of this study have implications for practical namely: 1) Changes in wages that always
happens every year in Java and Bali does not affect foreign investment, 2) Changes in economic stability did not
result in changes in foreign investment, 3) Changes in human capital resulted in a change in planting foreign
capital, 4) Changes in human capital resulted in a change in wages, 5) Changes in foreign investment will lead
to changes in economic growth, 6) Changes in foreign investment resulted in changes in unemployment. This
affects the results of theoretical research on: 1) Strengthening existing theories such as: The Theory of
Differential Rates of Return Hypothesis, Theory vicious circle of Nurkse, Harrod Domar growth theory, growth
theory Solow, Romer growth theory, theory of acceleration; 2). Not in line with the theory as: Country Risk

ЧТОБЫ ПОНЯТЬ СЛЕДУЮЩУЮ ЧАСТЬ исследований времени необходимо понимать, что многие показанные выше мерные величины имели и до настоящего времени имеют погрешности, вызванные обращением к пропорциям Человеческого тела, идущие от локтей и пядей, вместо обращения к УТРАЧЕННЫМ, НАМЕРЕННО ИСКАЖЕННЫМ величинам времени.
Ошибка и «падение» всех существующих мерных единиц измерения, наступающее с вводом ПЕРВОНАЧАЛЬНОЙ СИСТЕМЫ ИСЧИСЛЕНИЯ ВРЕМЕНИ связано с восстановлением пропорций, дающих гармонию множества предметных областей Знаний, в своей совокупности называемых Естествознанием

Establishing sharing schemes in DYN@MO cities to reduce individual transport
Establishing sharing schemes in DYN@MO cities to reduce individual transportUnion of the Baltic Cities Sustainable Cities Commission
This brochure describes the practical experiences of the cities’ introduction and extension of the usage of sharing schemes with traditional bicycles, electric bicycles as well as with electric and hybrid cars. Numerous advantages of sharing schemes are pointed out in the brochure. Besides saving money for the individual and improving the environment, the concept paves the way for multi-modal use of transport systems since the vehicle-sharing concept excels at high flexibility due to the independency of timetables and predetermined routes. Automated sharing systems can reliably be in operation year-round, day and night. Furthermore, the user freely chooses the fastest route to his destination not being bound to bus or train lines. In other words, a vehicle-sharing system adds customer value to the whole transport chain.
DYN@MO (2012-2016) is part of the CIVITAS Initiative, supporting cities to introduce ambitious transport measures and policies towards sustainable urban mobility.
