Carbon emissions refer to the measure of the impact of human activities on global warming and climate change. Every person on the planet contributes, directly and indirectly. It includes things like methods of transportation, cooling/heating your home, running appliances, the food you eat, the clothes you buy, and more.  While we can’t eliminate all production, […]

Many businesses are looking for ways to offset their carbon footprint and positively impact the environment. When choosing a carbon offset project, it is vital to consider the following factors: The environmental benefits of the project: Does the project help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions or protect natural ecosystems? The carbon offsets: How much carbon […]

We’re all working toward reducing our carbon footprint and ushering in a cleaner future. But how can you take meaningful steps to reduce your carbon emissions? Purchasing carbon offsets or carbon credits allows you to reduce your emissions by funding sustainability projects around the world that avoid or capture dangerous greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and […]

Hydrogen shares a long history with energy, ever since the compound powered the first internal combustible engine. The demand for clean hydrogen has steadily risen over the years to cater to the expanding energy needs of different users. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has set aside about $9.5 billion through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. […]

As the conversation around climate change grows louder, and with buzzwords like carbon neutral, net zero, or even climate positive, we must become more informed on what it all means and understand the steps needed to protect our environment. If you wonder, do the two terms — carbon neutral and net zero — refer to […]

As global efforts to minimize fossil fuel emissions continue, green energy alternatives offer a potential long-term solution to the problem. Today, sustainable resources like wind and solar energy are becoming more prevalent as countries worldwide strive to meet net-zero objectives by 2050. But how does the cost of green energy compare to fossil fuel costs, and […]

With the increasingly drastic effects of climate change, many countries are investing in green transition initiatives. These initiatives reduce carbon emissions from industries, households, and transportation systems, thus creating a sustainable ecosystem. But what does it mean to be carbon neutral?  [carfirst] Carbon neutrality means monitoring your lifestyle to reduce your carbon footprint by adopting energy-efficient […]

Carbon and other greenhouse gas emissions have built up in the atmosphere, leading to global warming, and we’re starting to see the effects. Instances of unusual weather patterns, natural disasters, and even the extinction of numerous species worldwide have become more prevalent. This has people wondering how to become carbon neutral. As people grow increasingly […]

Everything we do as humans has an impact on the environment. Your individual impact is known as your personal carbon footprint. This term refers to the amount of carbon dioxide or greenhouse gases you send into the atmosphere, either directly or indirectly. In other words, every time you do something that requires the use of […]

Human activities emit vast amounts of carbon every single day, and that carbon gets trapped in the atmosphere like a “blanket” that covers the earth. That traps heat from the sun within our environment, which causes global warming. Global warming is an issue because it changes the surface of our earth in the worst ways. […]
