Clean Cooking Alliance (CCA)’s Post

#CarbonFinance is transforming the #CleanCooking sector, helping to fill a significant funding gap. The Clean Cooking & Climate Consortium’s NEW methodology will help standardize best practices for clean cooking carbon projects.

Why Scrape, When you can Collect? Maintaining a clean barn floor in dairy production can be a challenge in the current climate, whether that is labour challenges on your farm or costs of production.

What is tropospheric ozone? How can we combat its effects on human health and our planet? Join the online launch of our tropospheric ozone policy brief today at 14:00 GMT 👇 #AirPollution #ClimateChange Clean Air Task Force Clean Air Institute

Today, we released the 25th annual "State of the Air" report which found too many communities are still waiting for clean air. Nevada experienced more days of unhealthy ozone levels, and significant - if not - the highest levels of particle pollution reported.   Key findings: • Washoe and Clark County are 2 out of 30 counties in the US with failing grades for all three categories of pollutant. • Las Vegas and Reno land on all three of the Top 25 most polluted cities list in the U.S. for ozone, 24-hour, and annual PM levels. • 95% of Nevada residents live in a county with at least one failing air quality grade. We do have good news – more decisionmakers are recognizing our air and climate crises and taking action to reduce unhealthy emissions contributing to our ozone and particle challenges. The transportation sector generates the most greenhouse gases in Nevada, and recently there has been important action at the federal and local level to address this. From recently finalized federal clean air protections, state zero-emission vehicle policies and local climate action planning – these actions get at the heart of improving our air quality and saving lives.

What temperature does my greenhouse need to be? Well, it depends on your location and climate. When it gets too hot, or too cold your cannabis plant will struggle to grow, but if you keep your plants in the low 80s Fahrenheit, you should be in the green (no pun intended)!

The Move to -15°C global coalition is campaigning to modify a standard that was created almost a century ago, by increasing temperatures at which frozen food is stored and transported by +3°C to -15°C. But what impact will it have?

Understanding #RefrigerantEmissions: These super-pollutants lurk in our food supply chain, causing damage to the atmosphere. Also called "climate forcers," refrigerants exacerbate the effects of other greenhouse gases. But–there's an easy fix. Learn more at www.therm.cool

Extreme #heatwaves increase our reliance on cooling technologies, which will be vital for our health as the planet warms 😰 The trouble is, one-third of emissions from cooling are HFCs, aka climate #SuperPollutants. These pollutants increase the speed of global warming, making the problem worse and the need for cooling higher. Luckily, natural refrigerants are a good alternative for people and the planet! On this #WorldRefrigerationDay please have a look at the work our members Environmental Investigation Agency are doing to champion climate-friendly cooling 👇
