Like other forms of renewable energy, geothermal power produces little or no carbon dioxide.
It turns out that most electric cars are no carbon cleaner than the average economy car.
FORBES: Is It Simply Phony Baloney Government Policy Or Conspiracy?
And unlike any other city in the world, Masdar City will have no carbon footprint.
It had no similar design flaws, no carbon in the reactor to spew contaminations.
FORBES: An Immodest Proposal to Spur Nuclear Energy Industry Growth -- and Global Safety
They assume that electric cars have no carbon emissions, although the electricity they use probably came from coal.
"As there is no carbon in the fuel, hydrogen-powered vehicles produce no carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide or particulate emissions, " said Wrightbus business development director Jonathan Poynton.
It accounts for 80% of the power produced in the state and one-third of the state's consumption--all with no carbon dioxide and at a low price.
"There are no carbon emissions while using photovoltaic cells to produce electricity -- then (we can) use electricity to operate desalination plants to produce freshwater, " he predicts.
CNN: Counting the carbon cost of bringing water to the desert
Though the no carbon tax T-shirts were selling the best, the stall on the fringes of the rally was also doing a speedy trade in "Election Now" T-shirts.
It still has the advantages of offering reliable power, a degree of energy security, and no carbon dioxide emissions beyond those incurred in building and supplying the plants.
And they'll go nuclear, which produces almost no carbon emissions.
Indeed, the rally was timed not only to coincide with the first sitting day of the Spring session of the parliament but the anniversary of her "no carbon tax" pledge during last year's federal election.
In 2009, despite no cap-and-trade law, no carbon tax and no major reductions mandated by our EPA, U.S. carbon dioxide emissions dropped by 7.1%, more than in any year in the record that begins in 1949.
The Obama administration has said it wants to speed construction of nuclear-power facilities as part of a strategy to support sources of energy that emit little or no carbon dioxide or other gases linked to climate change.
Low2No aims to create a successful prototype of a low- to no-carbon district.
It is believed there was no working carbon monoxide detector in the static caravan, meaning the three would have been unconscious "within minutes", Cornwall Fire and Rescue Service said.
Once we turn that corner, the energy-environment trade-off will start to work to our advantage, and possibly to the advantage of the whole world if we can develop low- or no-carbon energy technologies that can compete with cheap fossil fuels.
In time, the five gyres will kick debris onto their shores, at low cost or no cost, low carbon footprint, and no death to marine life in the process.
And the lack of climate legislation meant there was no price on carbon, which would have favoured nuclear power.
In theory, a solar shade could provide any amount of cooling, but the researchers estimate that it would have to have an area of 4.1m square kilometres (half the size of Brazil) to offset half the warming expected over the next century, assuming no cuts in carbon-dioxide emissions occur.
But the report says more study is needed, since no since no large-scale carbon-capture projects are running at this point.
It may set a static price, but there is no guarantee that a carbon tax will adequately reduce carbon emissions.
There is no way to capture carbon dioxide emissions at the tailpipe.
To win certification, Rimba Raya has to show that the forest is under genuine threat: no point in giving carbon credits for conserving trees and peatland that were not in danger anyway.
But scientists aren't sure no-till really sequesters carbon any better than conventional farming.
Mr Peters and his colleagues see no evidence so far that carbon-control policies, weak as they are, are shifting production to less regulated countries.
Energy leaders and experts recognize that as long as producing carbon pollution carries no cost, traditional plants that use fossil fuels will be more cost-effective than plants that use nuclear fuel.
And while they may be strong, carbon nanotubes are no good in protective clothing (yet another putative application) because they are unable to withstand shockwaves from impacts such as those caused by bullets.
But Russell Train, who served as EPA administrator in the Nixon and Ford administrations, counters that carbon dioxide is no different than other natural substances in the air that have been deemed pollutants and regulated in the past.
