"Global CO2 Emission Increased by 3% Posted on August 9, 2012 Global carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere continue to increase, reaching an all-time high of 34 billion tonnes, according to a study for the year 2011. The said results were published in the yearly "Trends in Global CO2 emissions" report, released by the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency and the European Commission's Joint Research Centre. Their data came from the Emission Database for Global Atmospheric Research (EDGAR). According to the report, there is a significant decrease in emission for countries belonging to the OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. The 34 member countries account for around one third of the emissions worldwide and is equal to the combine emission share of India and China. In total, the carbon dioxide emissions globally increased by 3%, reaching a historic level of 34 billion tons. The three percent emission increase in 2011 exceeds the last decade's average yearly increase of 2.7%. However, carbon dioxide emissions from Japan and US has decreased by around 2% owing to mild winters, generally weak economic states and high oil prices, but the two nations still remain in the top emitter spots along with China, EU, India and Russia. China has registered the greatest increase in emission with 7.2 tons per capita or 9%, bringing an average Chinese carbon footprint on the level of an average European's. Meanwhile the US has reduced its emission by 2% due to high oil prices and high interest in natural gas, though it is still the highest emitter with 17.3 tonnes per capita. Japan and the European Union has also clocked a 2% and 3% decrease in their respective emissions while India's increased by 6%. As of now, the official figures on carbon emissions announced this week are based on where fossil fuels were burned but a committee report from UK suggested that it also include in the nation's calculation the energy expended on th

"Policies and regulations currently in place to reduce CO2 emissions are not likely sufficient to handle the threat of increased emission from the India, China and US.   One has to imagine that gasoline's energy density is peerless that we would have to make a nuclear plant worth of clean energy daily for the next 5 decades just to meet our energy demands at present. Wave source is also a widely adopted alternative source but it is not nearly as viable, and consistently reliable, as shale gas.   There are experts who believe that simply using less coal would solve the problem nicely. They argue that if top emitters like India and China resort to shale gas as an alternative, it could greatly affect the future of global CO2 emissions as shale gas emits 50% less carbon dioxide compared to that of coals. Naturally, players in the coal sector do not want this proposition to advance and even go as far as to propose that we might as well remove all conventional fuels of the present.   Both supporters and critics would not acknowledge that the carbon dioxide emission policies are simply not enough to deal with threat of the coal-fueled economies like US and China. So unless a viable and quickly deployable fuel alternative of coal is discovered, it would not be possible to control the rising trajectory of CO2 levels worldwide.   And although environmentalist groups might, at first sight, consider shale gas as a scam posing as a solution, widespread use of shale gas could be our best bet in securing quick reduction of CO2 emissions that the Earth desperately needs.   The shift of momentum in using alternative fuel like shale gas could additionally buy us more time in developing more effective and viable solutions to further reduce the world's CO2 emissions. Renewable power resources at present cannot give the same results of emission savings as much as with the shale gas'.  "

(Bloomberg) - Japan's proposed incentives for renewable energy will boost solar panel installations and help wean the nation off nuclear power, industry lobby groups and developers said. A government panel Wednesday recommended solar power providers earn 42 yen (52 U.S. cents) a kilowatt-hour for the electricity they produce, three times the 13.65 yen charged to industrial and commercial users, according to the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. The preferential rate, known as a feed-in tariff, for solar power was recommended for 20 years. "The start of the feed-in tariff program will be a major step forward to expand the solar power market," said Tetsuo Kuba, president of Kyocera Corp., a solar panel maker. "We will expand our businesses in the mega-solar market," Kuba said in a statement. The panel's recommendation, which must be approved by Industry Minister Yukio Edano, marks another step in scaling back atomic power following the disaster at the Fukushima Dai- Ichi Plant last year and reducing carbon emissions linked to fossil fuel use. Japan currently gets about 9% of its electricity from renewables. The government's feed-in tariffs will require power utilities to pay above-market rates for electricity generated from renewable energy sources such as solar and wind. Wind and Geothermal Wind-generated power was recommended at 23.10 yen a kilowatt hour for plants with the capacity of 20 kilowatts or more and 57.75 yen for smaller ones, both for 20 years. For geothermal, the panel suggested 27.30 yen a kilowatt hour for plants with the capacity of 15,000 kilowatts or more and 42 yen for smaller plants, both for 15 years. The feed-in tariffs will be introduced in July to spur investment in solar, wind, geothermal, biomass and hydroelectric power generation. The program will replace an earlier one called "renewable portfolio standards" that require electricity retailers to buy set amounts of clean power at a price negotiated betwee

"Solamon Renewable Energy blog is created by a private organization, composed of various professionals, that strives to inform and disseminate info about a number of renewable energy sources (which are more viable) and environmentally-friendly than the widely-popular sources these days. We feature geothermal heat, wave power and hydroelectrical power. Solamon Renewable Energy wants to practically give information away to people so they would become more open to suggestions that they think are too radical for our time. Our group was founded with the aim to make countries see the relevance of starting to switch to renewable energy sources from the ones that we are used to. Not only because of the high prices and depleting availability, but more importantly, for the sake of environmental sustainability and nature preservation. "
