This Synthesis Report is based on the reports of the three Working Groups of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and provides an integrated view of climate change as the final part of the IPCC’s Fifth Assessment Report (AR5).Read More →

Land, irrigation water, greenhouse gas, and reactive nitrogen burdens of meat, eggs and dairy production in the United States

Published:August 2014

Author(s):Gidon Eshel, Alon Shepon, Tamar Makov, and Ron Milo

Publisher:PNAS

This study's calculations reveal that the environmental costs per consumed calorie of dairy, poultry, pork, and eggs are mutually comparable (to within a factor of 2), but strikingly lower than the impacts of beef.Read More →

Tracing Anthropogenic Carbon Dioxide and Methane Emissions from Fossil Fuel and Cement Producers, 1854–2010

Published:November 2013

Author(s):Richard Heede

Publisher:Climatic Change

This paper presents a quantitative analysis of the historic fossil fuel and cement production records of the leading producers of oil, natural gas, coal, and cement from as early as 1854 to 2010.Read More →

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 →

A unifying view of climate change in the Sahel linking intra-seasonal, interannual and longer time scales

Published:April 2013

Author(s):A Giannini, S Salack, T Lodoun, A Ali, A T Gaye and O Ndiaye

Publisher:Environmental Research Letters

This study proposes a re-interpretation of the oceanic influence on the climate of the African Sahel that is consistent across observations and that resolves the uncertainty in projections change in this region. Read More →
