UK study deems carbon dioxide cuttings insufficient

Thursday 29 October 2009

According to the Calgary Herald, even optimistic calculations give a negative result, both in the medium and in the long term.

Therefore, it would be better to use the funds that are now used for developing the vast oilsands sources in Alberta, for other technologies that actually might offer the required results. However, Carbon Capture and Storage should still play an important part in reducing CO2 emission, since this technology would make reducing emissions more affordable than other technologies. According to the study, the overall costs for a 50 per cent reduction in CO2 emissions by 2050 would increase by no less than 70 per cent.

Of course, Carbon Capture and Storage is not the only technology that can be used to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. On a smaller scale, companies can also help in reducing carbon dioxide emissions by using their fleet efficiently. Ctrack can help doing that. Ctrack is a company specialised in developing fleet management tools. One of these tools is Fleet Controller. Fleet Controller enables real-time vehicle activity to be tracked automatically against the planned routes and schedules. This will make it easier for companies to improve their customer service achievement, ensure delivery schedules, and of course, make more efficient use of fuel, which will help in cutting carbon dioxide emissions.

Even though numerous people are working on new technologies to decrease the carbon dioxide emissions, a UK study has proved that these reductions will not be sufficient to mitigate the general impact of the production of synthetic oil from the oilsands.
