Emission cuts seen not hurting economy

Studies say greenhouse gas reductions will shave only up to 3% from a GDP forecast to grow 30% in decade

Ottawa -- Tackling the climate-change problem will only result in a minor cooling of what is expected to be a red-hot economy over the next 10 years, two new studies prepared for the federal government have found.

 

The two reports -- one by the Department of Finance, the other by Ottawa-based think tank Informetrica Ltd. -- concluded that slashing the country's greenhouse gas emissions will shave somewhere between 0.6 and 3 per cent from a gross domestic product that is expected to grow roughly 30 per cent in the next decade.

 

Overhauling the economy to meet Canada's target of a 6-per-cent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from 1990 levels by 2010 will provide an initial economic stimulus as money is spent on new technology, the studies say, but will retard growth in the long run. Some industries, specifically those in the resource sector, will be hit disproportionately hard.

 

However, Informetrica (which predicts a larger economic slowdown than the Finance study) concludes that in the long run, cutting emissions will have "little negative effect" on economic output for real incomes or the country as a whole. - Toronto Globe and Mail

Nutty notion: Pistachio shells purge mercury emissions

In 1996, Massoud Rostam-Abadi, a professor of environmental engineering at the University of Illinois, bought a bag of pistachio nuts. While sampling a few morsels, a thought crossed his mind.

 

In a nutshell, Rostam-Abadi's freethinking went like this: Pistachio nuts are considered a delicacy, but pistachio shells are routinely discarded as a waste product. What if the shells could be put to good use, say, to help clean up emissions from coal-fired power plants?

 

"The best engineer is one who takes advantage of things that other people throw out," said Rostam-Abadi, quoting one of his teachers from undergraduate days in the 1970s.

 

With that adage in mind, Rostam-Abadi and colleagues at the University of Illinois and the Illinois State Geological Survey conducted experiments over the past four years. Their conclusion: The unassuming pistachio shell may indeed be a key ingredient in reducing mercury emissions from coal-fired power plants. - Environmental News Network
