Climate Letter #781

A disturbing report from Bloomberg (BNEF).  In my opinion the analysts in this group are among the best for doing such calculations, as well as Michael Liebreich himself.  They see too much coal consumption in Asia from now until 2040 and insufficient investment in renewables for at least five years.  “If Asia keeps building coal-fired power stations, then there is no way of sticking within a carbon budget consistent with 2 degrees,” he said.

How the extreme high temperature anomaly is affecting Arctic sea ice.  This year’s refreezing process is falling behind by a record amount.  For the year as a whole, 2016 is likely to end up with the largest number and largest combined amounts for record low days, ahead of 2012.  Notice how the averages for previous decades have progressively fallen.  I think the average for the current decade will end up fairly close to this year’s track, or that of 2007.

A form of crude oil can be created from the sludge produced by the treatment of wastewater.  The process is simple and has many other benefits.  A demonstration plant is to be constructed soon in Vancouver.

Existing wastewater treatment plants are a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions.  This story is related to the one above.  Advancing the technology for treatment would be of help in reducing one of the more important “loose ends” that hang around the main quest for climate change abatement.
