What is Carbon Emission?
2 Answers
Carbon emission refers to the average greenhouse gas emissions generated during the production, transportation, use, and recycling of a product. Dynamic carbon emission, on the other hand, refers to the cumulative greenhouse gas emissions per unit of goods, which can vary between different batches of the same product. Adopting clean energy: Use clean fossil fuels with low carbon content. For example, replace coal globally with natural gas, shale gas, etc. New renewable energy sources, namely wind and solar power, still account for less than 5% of the global primary energy supply. In 1990, fossil fuels accounted for 88% of the global electricity supply, and this figure was 87% in 2012. Today, the whole society advocates energy conservation and emission reduction, calling on everyone to change their energy consumption habits, achieve a low-carbon lifestyle, and participate in actions to save the environment and humanity itself. The traditional concept of energy utilization is accustomed to consuming energy to meet energy demands, and energy-saving measures also tend to pursue as close to 100% utilization as possible during the energy consumption process.
I'm an ordinary driver, and I often hear discussions about environmental protection on the radio during my daily commute. Carbon emissions refer to the amount of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide released into the air from our daily activities, such as the exhaust fumes from a car's tailpipe. Excessive emissions can worsen global warming, leading to more frequent extreme weather events that affect our lives. Last year, I switched to an electric vehicle and found that my emissions were cut in half, plus I saved on fuel costs. The government is now promoting energy-saving policies, and emissions levels are checked during vehicle inspections—exceeding the limits may result in fines. I recommend driving less on highways and maintaining a speed between 60-80 km/h to reduce fuel consumption and emissions. On weekends, I've switched to cycling, which is both healthy and eco-friendly—a win-win situation.
