involve low carbon society concept. The question is what is sustainable development and low carbon society? Sustainable development is eco-friendly development and low carbon society is society that consumes sustainable and relatively low carbon energy as compared with our present day to avoid adverse climate change. Malaysia also participates in this program in order to reduce carbon emission to avoid climate change. In this research we focus on how to transformed Iskandar Malaysia to low carbon society

By Maxwell Kudzaishe Bhosha Topic: Carbon emission abatement can be achieved by various means‚ for example‚ regulation (controlling the emitting of carbon on the same basis as governments control other pollutants)‚ by subsidising consumption of renewable technologies using wind or the sun‚ by subsidising non-carbon polluting technologies and by supporting research into innovative green technologies. Another way of achieving reduction in carbon emissions is a pricing scheme such as a cap-and-trade

Carbon Footprint Analysis Background Every year in the U.S. over 3.2 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions are released into the air‚ most of which are from human activities. The increased levels of carbon dioxide has been shown to cause global climate change (global warming). So how can you personally have an impact on global warming and the sustainability of the environment? First‚ you need to recognize how you contribute to the problem. Then you need to figure out how you can reduce

"A carbon fiber is a long‚ thin strand of material about 0.005-0.010 mm in diameter and composed mostly of carbon atoms. The carbon atoms are bonded together in microscopic crystals that are more or less aligned parallel to the long axis of the fiber. The crystal alignment makes the fiber incredibly strong for its size. Several thousand carbon fibers are twisted together to form a yarn‚ which may be used by itself or woven into a fabric. The yarn or fabric is combined with epoxy and wound or molded

Describe how the uses of plant fibres and starch may contribute to sustainability How can plant fibres be used? First of all the plant fibres have to be extracted from the plant itself. The process of extraction often used is called retting. Retting involves using water or micro-organisms to dissolve or rot away the cellular tissues surrounding the bast-fibre bundles. Afterwards the fibres are obtained; usually they extract very long sclerenchyma cells and xylem tissue because of their good

The introduction of the carbon tax in Australia. Recently‚ the carbon tax issue has been gaining increasing attention in Australia due to its function of reducing greenhouse gas as well as its extensive economic impacts on a range of industries‚ such as tourism and hospitality. The conceptual meaning of the carbon tax is “a levy applied to various operations that generate carbon dioxide” (Covey‚ 2009‚ p.329). Such a tax is introduced to achieve a desired national emission target (Covey‚ 2009)

Carbon Emission and it’s Issues Recently‚ the amount of carbon emissions reached 40 billion tons. This is a record high‚ and is very damaging for Earth and humans alike. Carbon emission is a serious issue that can affect all of us in the near future. It is very harmful to the environment‚ but can also be delayed. Carbon emission is the total amount of carbon dioxide that are released in the air. There are natural and unnatural reasons for this. Nature‚ releases carbon dioxide‚ one of the most common
