Different types of emissions from combustion
Are you interested in learning more about stove performance field-testing? Do you want to know how fuel efficiency and emissions test results correlate between lab and field studies in Rwanda, Laos and Bangladesh?
If so, register today for the Partnership for Clean Indoor Air’s (PCIA) webinar titled “WBT and Controlled Cooking Tests in Rwanda, Laos and Bangladesh” on March 13, 2012. This is the fifth in a series of PCIA webinars devoted to stove performance testing.
A growing desire to explore non-CO2, GHG-emission-busting options opens the door for delivering efficient technologies and renewable fuels to fast growing parts of Africa and the world that are hungry for energy.
This should be sweet music to the ears of The Charcoal Project supporters who believe wood energy can be compatible with environmental conservation, GHG emissions reduction, and a source of renewable energy for low-carbon economic growth.
Greenpeace Canada just released a report that questions the country’s current wood energy industry, its practices, and its impact on the environment and climate change. The report suggests that “burning woody biomass on an industrial scale could severely harm Canada’s public forests and further contribute to the global climate crisis.”

Global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are rising faster than the worst case scenarios projected only four years ago.
