Plans to reduce greenhouse gases
Scotland ’s energy intensive industries will be consulted on plans to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, it was announced today. Electricity generators, oil refineries and manufacturing plants are among those being asked to contribute towards reductions. The Executive is joining the UK Government in consulting on a plan which sets out how greenhouse gas emission allowances will be allocated to operators covered by the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS) which begins in 2005. The EU ETS is the most significant measure in the EU Climate Change Programme. It targets the largest industrial emitters of carbon dioxide, allowing them to trade emission allowances and make reductions where they are most economically viable.

Climate Change and greenhouse gases
Latest figures for emissions of greenhouse gases show that Scotland is playing its part in helping the UK reach its Kyoto reduction target of 12.5 per cent despite updated figures for 2001 pointing to a slight increase in Scotland between 2000 and 2001. Scottish greenhouse gas emissions data indicate an overall fall in Scottish emissions over the period 1990-2001 set against a 23 per cent growth in the Scottish economy over the same period. Measured against a 1990 baseline for carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide, and a 1995 baseline for fluorinated compounds, Scottish emissions of greenhouse gases in 2001 were some 3 per cent lower.

http://www.aag.org/HDGC/Geog_Greenhouse_Gas_Emissions.html
The Geography of Greenhouse Gas Emissions I n 1988 the United Nations General Assembly established the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) to advise the world of the seriousness of global climate change. In 1990 the group published a report summarizing the conclusions reached by climate researchers from around the world: global climate change is a serious issue that requires immediate action.
The IPCC report states that human activities such as fossil fuel combustion and deforestation increase the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the Earth's atmosphere. Current consensus in the climate change scientific community predicts that even if CO2 emissions were entirely eliminated today, the concentration of already-emitted greenhouse gases will lead to a significant warming of the Earth's atmosphere and cause many other climatic changes.
This module familiarizes students with the issues surrounding the IPCC; it addresses global climate change from two sides.
This module provides students with sufficient technical knowledge to understand the debates surrounding global climate change and concludes with a section on personal actions and responsibility (Unit 5). The module activities include chart preparation and interpretation, short essay questions. role playing, mapping, and keeping a log of personal energy use. Order Form Back to Project Overview

Six Greenhouse Gases
The six greenhouse gases recommended by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPPC) comprise carbon dioxide (CO ), methane (CH ), nitrous oxide (N O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulphur hexafluoride (SF ). (The HFCs and PFCs are classes of chemical species rather than individual species.) While some of these gases occur naturally in the atmosphere (viz., carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide) certain human activities have added significantly to the atmospheric levels of these gases. The remaining synthetic gases, while produced in lesser quantities, are nonetheless very potent greenhouse gases. This potency is due to their strong infrared absorption characteristics, as a result of which 1 kg gas in the atmosphere can be equivalent in greenhouse warming to many tonnes of CO The CO equivalence of a particular gas, when integrated over a time horizon of 100 years, is referred to as its Global Warming Potential (GWP). For a review on GWP see

Climate Glossary
The greenhouse effect is a natural warming process of the earth. When the sun's energy reaches the earth some of it is reflected back to space and the rest is absorbed. The absorbed energy warms the earth's surface which then emits heat energy back toward space as longwave radiation. This outgoing longwave radiation is partially trapped by greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane and water vapour which then radiate the energy in all directions, warming the earth's surface and atmosphere. Without these greenhouse gases the earth's average surface temperature would be about 33 degrees Celsius cooler. Human activities such as deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels have increased the concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Scientists are concerned that higher greenhouse gas concentrations will lead to an "enhanced" greenhouse effect which may lead to global climate change. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is an international group of scientists which advises policymakers on the latest science of greenhouse climate change. In late 1995, the IPCC concluded that "the balance of evidence suggests a discernible human influence on global climate." Research institutes such as the Bureau of Meteorology Research Centre and CSIRO Division of Atmospheric Research use complex computer model simulations of the climate system to investigate potential greenhouse climate changes.

Greenhouse gases vary in their capacity to induce global warming. To account for this when assessing the effect of emissions of different gases, the global warming potential (GWP) of each gas is factored in.

    CLIMATE CHANGE AND GREENHOUSE GASES
    The first photographs from space brought home the fact that Earth is an integrated and isolated system. Concern that human impacts could be changing the equilibrium of this system grew in the 1970s as theories about ozone depletion and the "greenhouse effect" developed. The concept of the Earth changing over various time scales was not new: solar and astronomical cycles, the waxing and waning of ice ages, and seasonal changes have long been recognized. What was new was the realization that humans can have a lasting and far-reaching impact on Earth's natural fluctuations and cycles. We cannot yet predict the magnitude of climatic effects from greenhouse gas emissions with accuracy. But it is clear that the decision to limit emissions cannot await the time when the full impacts are evident. The lag time between emission of the gases and their full impact is on the order of decades to centuries; (2) so too is the time needed to reverse any effects. Today's emissions thus commit the planet to changes well into the 21st century. And the lag times between identification of policy options, legislation of controls, and actual implementation can also be considerable. For example, the recent reauthorization of the Clean Air Act took 10 years; implementation of the Act will begin now and continue over the next 10 to 20 years.

    Hour One: Greenhouse Gases: The Overlooked Sources

    The debate over global warming usually focuses on big industry. But what about other sources, from cows to that shiny new sport utility vehicle in your driveway? The Kyoto conference on climate change is in full swing. But after they deal with the tough political question of how much to limit emissions of gases like carbon dioxide and methane, the nations involved will have to develop practical methods for cutting back production of these greenhouse gases. The main greenhouse gas that the delegates are examining is carbon dioxide, which is emitted primarily through combustion of carbon-based fuels. Two hundred times as much carbon dioxide as methane is emitted each year, but molecule for molecule, methane is about fifty times more effective at warming the planet. And while much of the global warming debate has focused on huge projects like developing cleaner methods of electricity generation or stopping deforestation, a big difference could come from relatively small sources of methane - like cows.

    Greenhouse Gases and Where They Come From
    To make the most of opportunities for reducing greenhouse-gas emissions, it's a good idea first to understand where the emissions come from.
    Carbon dioxide is the principal humanly produced greenhouse gas, especially at the household level. It's given off whenever carbon-based fuels are burned: oxygen (O ) from the atmosphere combines with the carbon (C) to produce carbon dioxide (CO ). But some fuels give off more carbon dioxide than others. For example, natural gas is the cleanest fossil fuel, emitting nearly 40 percent less CO per unit of heat output than oil. Electricity is not a fuel per se, but rather a carrier of energy. Because of conversion and grid losses, it typically takes three or four units of fuel to produce and deliver one unit of electricity. That makes electricity an extremely carbon-intensive choice for tasks where another fuel will do (such as cooking, heating water, or space heating), but for other uses (such as lighting, motors, and electronics) it more than makes up for its inefficiencies. If you're interested in the CO emissions from using electricity and various fuels, see

    Greenhouse Gases
    The Sun's rays reach the Earth's atmosphere in the form of short-wave radiation. This radiation passes through the atmosphere to heat the Earth's surface during the day. The Earth's surface, heated by the sun's energy, re-radiates this heat back into space as long-wave, or infrared radiation. Some of this energy is absorbed by several trace gases in the atmosphere, including water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, and ozone, and, as a result, the temperature of the atmosphere is raised. This heat is subsequently radiated from the atmosphere into space and the Earth's atmosphere achieves a balance, losing and receiving the same amounts of heat, varying only with fluctuations in the concentrations of these trace gases in the atmosphere. These energy-absorbing trace gases are known as the greenhouse gases. Most attention has been paid to carbon dioxide, but water vapor is the most important in terms of the total amount of infrared energy trapped, so that a small change in the fraction of water vapor in the atmosphere can mask a large percentage change in carbon dioxide. Other important greenhouse gases are methane, nitrous oxide, sulfur dioxide, and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). These gases are rare, and make up less than .01 percent of the atmosphere, but unlike nitrogen and oxygen, they absorb infrared radiation, so their concentration in the atmosphere is important. Each greenhouse gas absorbs radiation at different wavelengths, so they vary in their potency. For example, a given quantity of methane gas (CH

Many chemical compounds found in the Earthís atmosphere act as ìgreenhouse gases.î These gases allow sunlight, which is radiated in the visible and ultraviolet spectra, to enter the atmosphere unimpeded. When it strikes the Earthís surface, some of the sunlight is reflected as infrared radiation (heat). Greenhouse gases tend to absorb this infrared radiation as it is reflected back towards space, trapping the heat in the atmosphere. Many gases exhibit such ìgreenhouseî properties, including those that occur naturally in the atmosphere, such as water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide, and those that are man-made, such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF Why Are Atmospheric Levels Increasing?
