Accounting for Greenhouse Gas Emissions Associated with the Supply of Fossil Fuels

Published:October 2013

Author(s):Peter Erikson, Michael Lazarus

Publisher:Stockholm Environment Institute

This discussion brief explores how an extraction-based emissions accounting tracks and accounts for the emissions associated with fossil fuels as they are brought into the world economy, and the implications of taking such an approach.Read More →

The Impact of Powder River Basin Coal Exports on Global Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Published:May 2013

Author(s):Thomas Michael Power, Donovan S. Power

Publisher:The Energy Foundation

This report details and responds to the arguments that there will be no net increase in global GHG emissions as a result of the expansion of PRB coal mining and the construction of rail and port infrastructure on the West Coast.Read More →
