Climate change mitigation

  • Renewable Energy Sources and Climate Change Mitigation
    The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) published a special report on Renewable Energy Sources and Climate Change Mitigation (SRREN) on May 9, 2011.
  • Fossil fuel phase-out
    Fossil fuel phase out is the proposed energy transition beyond fossil fuels through multiple means, including transport electrification, fossil fuel divestment, decommissioning of operating fossil fuel-fired power plants and prevention of the construction of new fossil fuel-fired power stations.
  • Bio-energy with carbon capture and storage
    Bio-energy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) is a future greenhouse gas mitigation technology which produces negative carbon dioxide emissions by combining bioenergy (energy from biomass) use with geologic carbon capture and storage.
  • Clean Development Mechanism
    The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is one of the Flexible Mechanisms defined in the Kyoto Protocol (IPCC, 2007) that provides for emissions reduction projects which generate Certified Emission Reduction units (CERs) which may be traded in emissions trading schemes.
  • Green Monday (organization)
    Green Monday (GM) is a startup that makes low-carbon and sustainable living simple.
  • Clean coal
    Clean coal is a concept for processes or approaches that mitigate emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases, and radioactive materials, that arise from the use of coal, mainly for electrical power generation, using clean coal technology.
  • Carbon-neutral fuel
    Carbon-neutral fuels can refer to a variety of energy fuels or energy systems which have no net greenhouse gas emissions or carbon footprint.
  • Denawaka Ganga Mini Hydro Power Project
    Denawaka Ganga Mini Hydro Power Project is a run of river mini hydro power project located in Ratnapura, Sri Lanka.
  • Mitigation of global warming in Australia
    Mitigation of global warming involves taking actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to enhance sinks aimed at reducing the extent of global warming.
  • Climate change mitigation
    Climate change mitigation consists of actions to limit the magnitude or rate of long-term climate change.
  • CarbonFix Standard
    The CarbonFix Standard (CFS) is an initiative supported by over 60 organisations promotes the development of climate forestation projects to sequester carbon from the atmosphere.
