The tool assesses design's total carbon footprint due to site development, construction, and operation; helps designers and other project stakeholders set carbon emissions goals and design targets; identifies ways to meet the Architecture 2030 Challenge, earn credits in green building rating systems, and achieve other goals; and compliments a financial model (based on life cycle cost analysis) to provide the most comprehensive support for building design decisions.

I’m all for cutting carbon emissions and cycling (not that I’d ever dream of doing so on the UK’s roads now where an RTA is a mathematical certainty rather than an acceptable risk), but the more I see of this awkward marriage, the more I’m certain that bikes and trains just don’t mix. [read post]

Maybe this time we’ll see more support for low carbon transportation initiatives, such as cycling, transit, and electric cars, since the key NDP environmental planks were: Four year transit fare freeze Up to $5,000 in home energy retrofit rebates Phase out coal, maintain the FIT program, and bring 10,700 MW of renewable energy online by 2018 Invest in cycling infrastructure Make sure the cost of recycling and safely disposing materials is borne by the companies that… [read post]

Every effort must be made to reduce emissions and increase removal of atmospheric carbon in order to restore the melting Arctic and end the deadly cycle of damage that the current climate is delivering. [read post]

In this case, cycling would have saved on fuel costs and tolls, had virtually zero carbon footprint, and would have had numerous health benefits for the rider. [read post]

Three commercially available products containing fullerenes (C60 and carbon nanotubes) were analysed in a life cycle perspective in order to (1) map current applicable regulations, (2) analyse their applicability to nanomaterials, (3) identify their gaps, and (4) suggest proper solutions.Read the full paper here.My general observation: the paper still based itself on "emission" paradigm.

Amorphous diamond normally does not have a crystal structure. [1.1.3] There exists also no need to incorporate the term “hard carbon” after the expression “amorphous diamond” […] since it is clear that the resulting amorphous diamond coating is a particularly hard carbon (see patent, paragraph [0007]).
