Environmental Chemistry

Energy and Environment:

Energy and environment are related in the technological and scientific aspects including energy conservation, and also the synergy of energy forms and systems with the physical environment. The levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide has risen by 31% between 1800 and 2000, going from 280 parts per million to 367 parts per million. Scientists predict that co2 levels could be as high as 970 parts per million by the year 2100. Different factors are accountable for this development, like the promotion with respect to technical parameters of energy converters, especially, improved efficiency; discharge characteristics and increased lifetime. Various environmental policies have been implemented across the world for reduction of GHG emissions for improvement of environment.
