The production of electricity is known to be a gargantuan contributor to global climate change. In 2018, it was responsible for approximately 41% of all global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, amounting to a total of 13.6 billion tons of CO2 emissions…
Rising global temperatures prompt each of us to consider, "How will the effects of climate change manifest where I live?" The maps below consider tree cover, heat, flood risk, and impervious surface cover in Peekskill and Cortlandt as a way of…
This thesis investigates the potential of green hydrogen as a cornerstone of the global energy transition, especially in hard-to-decarbonize sectors such as steel production, heavy transport, and chemical manufacturing. Grounded in frameworks like…
In a world increasingly plagued by anthropogenic heat due to airborne emissions, the mitigation of such emissions is all the more effective when carried out by entities with more sway. Moreover, trees provide a critical sink of greenhouse gases…
