2021-05-03· Ultimately, the buildup of CO 2 is under human control, tied mostly to our use of fossil fuels. As we move beyond the COVID pandemic, a lot depends on how seriously we invest in alternate technology and infrastructure that allows us to live well with less dependence on fossil fuel.
2021-01-18· The 2020 emissions drop was a side-effect of efforts to control COVID-19. If economic recovery efforts were targeted to try to bring emissions down further this could keep the target …
2020-04-23· The global coronavirus-shutdown of civilization as we know it has caused a sudden and massive decrease in human CO2 production from the burning of fossil fuels — Coal, Oil, and Natural Gas. This massive decrease in usage is the fundamental cause of the collapse of oil prices in recent days, even reaching NEGATIVE pricing per barrel in the past few days.
COVID-19 is thought to be primarily transmitted via large respiratory droplets, however, an increasing number of outbreak reports implicate the role of aerosols in COVID-19 outbreaks. Aerosols consist of small droplets and droplet nuclei which remain in the air for longer than large droplets [5,6]. Studies indicate that SARS-CoV-2 particles can remain infectious on various materials , as well ...
Carbon dioxide is a colourless, odourless, and non-flammable gas. At normal atmospheric temperatures and pressures, CO 2 is a gas heavier than air, with a density of approximately one and a half times that of air. Carbon dioxide is relatively stable and inactive; however, it will react with water to form carbonic acid (H 2 CO 3) (refer to ...
