CO2 emissions in Europe

In recent weeks, Europe has decided to reduce its CO2 emissions to the atmosphere by 40% compared to 1990, and has agreed to a 27% renewable impact by 2030. The agreement has thwarted the hopes of environmental groups and organisations.

In recent weeks, Europe has decided to reduce its emissions of CO2 into the atmosphere by 40%, but with respect to 1990, and has agreed that the impact of renewables will be 27% by 2030. The agreement has thwarted the hopes of environmental groups and organisations. In fact, according to environmentalists, renewable energies have the capacity to reach half of all the energy that will be needed by 2030. In addition, they point out that a 40% reduction in emissions will not be enough to combat global warming.

In fact, NASA’s 2013 temperature data confirmed earlier this week that global warming is a reality. Work at NASA’s Goddard Space Research Center shows that last year the average global temperature was 14.6 degrees Celsius, in the 20th century. 0.6 degrees above the average for the whole century. 1880. Data on the temperature of the entire planet of the elevations began each year. Since then, if 1998 is omitted, the ten warmest years date back to the 21st century, with 2010 and 2005 being the warmest.

A year does not have to be warmer than the previous one, but because of the level of greenhouse gases, researchers expect a decade to exceed the temperature of the previous one.

Greenhouse gases, especially carbon dioxide, are the ones that do not allow the atmosphere to cool and cause climate change. As a result of human activity, the amount of gases of this type has increased in recent decades.

While the European agreement has left no one satisfied, there has been some progress in reducing CO2 emissions in vehicle traffic in recent times.

In France, for example, an electronic remuneration system is being tested with the aim of minimising the time spent at the payment points. The system itself is able to know if the car that has to pass the toll is in the electronic collection program. Those who are not in this system are encouraged to sign up, and those who are already in this system are paid electronically so that they do not have to stop. Thus, since cars do not have to stay to pay, the program’s proponents expect them to consume less fuel.

Located in Lummen, Belgium. They measure the amount of CO2 emitted by vehicles in this place, both by gasoline carriers and by diesel engines. The system captures the gas exiting the exhaust pipe and measures it. In this way they know how many harmful elements they emit and verify that they are within the limits established by law.
