Climate Change Greenhouse Gases: Cost Effective Reduction Is Possible Now

WASHINGTON, DC (ots)

Researchers recently presented evidence
that CO2 from natural as well as fossil fuel emissions can be
sequestered while producing renewable hydrogen. Evidence was
presented at the USDA Symposium on Natural Resource Management to
Offset Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Raleigh and the FEMA supported
Pre-Disaster and Mitigation Conference/Workshop at the Cabell Brand
Center in Roanoke. The work shows a profitable and economical
near-term method for sequestering carbon dioxide. "While research
work needs to continue, something needs to be done quickly to halt
the build up of potentially damaging greenhouse gases and help
establish a global hydrogen based economy", announced Danny Day,
entrepreneur and President of Eprida, Inc.
The vision of developing solutions that can create income for the
farmers and businesses is what keeps entrepreneurs like Day working
18-hour days. He said, "In a breakout session here at the US Climate
Change Workshop, we asked the panel to consider that current research
will create data that could start hundreds if not thousands of small
businesses worldwide. Organizing and presenting data in a way that
makes sense to other scientists is one thing, but presenting it in a
way that can be used to support the development of new businesses and
ferret out income opportunities would speed development and
implementation of acceptable solutions."
The evidence and symposium presentations (available for review at
Eprida's website) show that development of sequestered materials
carbon that can provide a balanced carbon-nitrogen storage/release
mechanism that can extend natural sequestration efforts by thousands
of years. The work also presented evidence that farmers can benefit
from increased soil fertility, nutrient holding capacity, microbial
activity, water retention, and better crop production with decreased
nutrient leaching, farm chemical runoff, and farm related greenhouse
gas emissions. The process consumes some hydrogen but produces 4
times more which could be available for power and transportation. It
also removes fossil fuel SOx and NOx emissions. "We are sensitive to
the issues of environmental review for modifying coal fired power
plants," Day said, but possibly with some exemptions, a 3rd party
could be allowed to buy power plant exhaust without requiring the
facility to go through an extensive environmental review process
which frankly under current regulations they cannot economically
justify. This process should be able to pass its own environmental
review and could support a more rapid rollout."
The developing data systems and research being proposed at the
Climate Change Workshop will speed the implementation of this as well
as other economical solutions. Damages from changes in the
environment could affect the economic base of major corporations and
could point toward investments that can secure their long-term
economic health. Ultimately, everyone has a vested interest in
protecting planetary assets. "It is by implementing solutions that we
can all agree today and researching better solutions for tomorrow
that we can achieve our goal of a prosperous and sustainable world."
