Uses Japanese technology to help reduce emission and improve absorption of greenhouse gases globally, as well as to create sustainable economic systems, at the same time promoting adoption of Japan's outstanding low carbon technologies.
The meat industry contributes about 18% of global greenhouse gas emissions, a proportion expected to grow as consumers in fast-developing countries such as China and India eat more meat.
With these two countries making up over one third of the global greenhouse gas emissions, this joint announcement from the U.S. and China plays a significant role in addressing climate change.
Japan, which accounts for approximately 4 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, should swiftly go through procedures for ratifying the Paris Agreement to help the pact come into force early.
According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations(FAO) agriculture is responsible for 18% of the total release of greenhouse gases world-wide(this is more than the whole transportation sector).
Like Japan, Thailand and India have also experienced strong sales of HFC-32 air conditioners, and significant results for reduction of global greenhouse gases are expected in the future.
All manufacturers in Japan sell HFC-32 air conditioners, and the use of these air conditioners is projected to have a significant impact in reducing worldwide greenhouse gases in the future.
At the annual meeting, 31 additional countries deposited their instruments of ratification for the Agreement, bringing the total to 60 countries that together represent more than 47.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions.
It's not quite that simple, but halting deforestation- the source of more than a tenth of global greenhouse gas emissions- would help to limit the increase in average global temperatures and the associated impacts of a changing climate.
The goals of this agreement are to keep the average temperature rise of the earth lower than 2°C from before the industrial revolution, to keep it within 1.5°C and make global greenhouse gas emission practically zero in the second half of the 21st century.
The global production of clothing and footwear generates 8% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions and, with manufacturing concentrated in Asia, the industry is mainly reliant on hard coal and natural gas to generate electricity and heat".
The main threats are habitat destruction, particularly from the burning and clearing of tropical forests(which results in the release of around 16 percent of the global greenhouse gases causing climate change), the hunting of primates for food, and the illegal wildlife trade….
The Paris Agreement entered into force on November 4, 2016 and has been signed by 197 countries, of which 135 have now formally ratified it, which represent more than 75 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions.
Deforestation, particularly in the tropics, contributes 19- 20 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions and ways to reduce emissions from deforestation and degradation(REDD) by ensuring protection of the world's rainforests are hotly debated.
The apparel industry alone accounts for 6.7% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions, with more than 50% coming from 3 phases: fiber production(15%), yarn preparation(28%), and the highest impact phase- dyeing& finishing(36%).
The White House said the studies, by the U.S. space agency NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration(NOAA), showed climate change was happening now and that action was needed to cut rising world greenhouse gas emissions.
The main threats are habitat destruction, particularly from the burning and clearing of tropical forests(which results in the release of around 16 per cent of the global greenhouse gases causing climate change), the hunting of primates for food, and the illegal wildlife trade.
Given that Asia accounts for more than 40% of global greenhouse gas emissions and has high levels of interest in and awareness of energy conservation and environmental protection, Japan, China, and Korea should cooperate to play proactive roles in achieving development which is in harmony with the environment.
