In today's world, there are many types of energy, and the carbon emissions generated by various energy sources are different, which cannot be ignored.
Coal is formed by ancient plants buried deep and long. Burning it, its heat is very huge, and it can be an energy base for industry and people's livelihood. However, its carbon content is high, and when burning, a large amount of carbon dioxide escapes, contributing a lot to carbon emissions. Each ton of standard coal is burned, and the amount of carbon emitted is about [X] tons of carbon dioxide equivalent, which is the main part of carbon emissions.
Petroleum is also an important energy source. Its refined products such as gasoline and diesel are mostly used for transportation. When the vehicle is running, the fuel is burned violently, and carbide is emitted. It is estimated that every liter of gasoline is burned, emitting about [X] kilograms of carbon dioxide. Although indispensable for energy supply, its carbon emissions should not be underestimated.
As for natural gas, compared with coal and oil, the carbon content ratio is slightly lower. When burned, carbon emissions are relatively small. Each cubic meter of natural gas is burned, emitting about [X] kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalent. Therefore, in the pursuit of low carbon, natural gas is increasingly favored as a transitional energy source.
In contrast, clean energy, such as solar energy, with the photovoltaic effect, light to electricity, no carbon emissions worry. It is inexhaustible, inexhaustible, and pollution-free. Another example is wind energy, which generates electricity from wind power, and has no carbon emissions. Hydroelectric power generation uses water potential to convert machinery to electricity. Although there may be carbon emissions during construction, carbon emissions are nearly zero during operation.
For today's plan, if you want to reduce carbon emissions, you must widely promote clean energy and optimize the energy structure. Reduce the use of high-carbon coal and oil, and replace them with natural gas and renewable energy. In this way, the greenhouse effect can be slowed down, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the livable place for future generations.
