INTRODUCTION Since carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere is accumulating rapidly because of burning fossil fuel‚ coal‚ oil and natural gas for power generation‚ transportation‚ industrial and domestic uses‚ our earth has been facing global warming‚ sea level rising‚ flooding and other adverse changes which damage to our ecosystem. To address this challenge‚ we need to find out other alternative ways that do not produce carbon dioxide or that reduce the release of enormous amount of carbon dioxide gases

The carbon cycle is the exchange of carbon among three reservoirs or storage places: the land‚ the oceans‚ and the atmosphere The atmosphere has the least amount of carbon‚ followed by the land with it plants and animals‚ also

Chemistry Pg. 1 Carbon Dating Carbon dating is the most reliable‚ commonly used‚ and useful dating method‚ for what it can date. It is used to date late Pleistocene and Holocene artifacts and geologic events up to 50‚000 years decayed. Carbon dating has been very beneficial to the scientific world‚ because it is used in so many different fields of science‚ including archaeology‚ geology‚ oceanography‚ hydrology‚ atmospheric science‚ and paleoclimatology. The radiocarbon dating method was developed

A carbon footprint is "the total set of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions caused by an organization‚ event or product" [1]. For simplicity of reporting‚ it is often expressed in terms of the amount of carbon dioxide‚ or its equivalent of other GHGs‚ emitted. The concept name of the carbon footprint originates from ecological footprint discussion.[2] The carbon footprint is a subset of the ecological footprint and of the more comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). An individual‚ nation‚ or organization’s

range of applications as lubricants‚ anti-stiction layers‚ molecular glues‚ coupling agents or adhesion layers. The mentioned molecular coatings are used to modify material surface properties. The traditional coating deposition methods consist of a set of sequential wet baths. The wet processing method is complex and limits the ability of molecular coating in many MEMS applications. The use of liquid precursors has extremely limited bath life‚ which cause the method to be highly expensive and have low

through a buildup of greenhouse gases – primarily carbon dioxide‚ methane‚ and nitrous oxide. this is what the carbon footprints calls for CARBON FOOTPRINTS A carbon footprint is a measure of the impact our activities have on the environment‚ and in particular climate change. It relates to the amount of greenhouse gases produced in our day-to-day lives through burning fossil fuels for electricity‚ heating and transportation etc. The carbon footprint is a measurement of all greenhouse gases
