With advancement in technology and great scientific innovations, many organizations, particular individuals, groups and occurrences have made use of fossil fuels which cause great carbon dioxide emissions leading to what is referred to as carbon footprint. Biomass can be termed as the source of organic chemicals and can be produced by plants, wood and foliage. Biomass can be utilized and its products may be used to boast the world economy.
Emission of gases such as carbon dioxide causes many disasters in the atmosphere, as this gas damage the ozone layer leading to climatic changes. The vehicles we drive, our manufacturing factories, release all these gases and we need to join hands with organizations and individuals fighting this disaster and see a pollution free atmosphere.
The scientific studies
Many individuals and organizations have raised the alarm on the increased amount of carbon gases in the environment and are urging the people involved to maximize a low or a zero carbon energy emission, a step which can also help improve the economy of a country. A lot of studies have been done showing how carbon footprint has affected the economy. A certain research showed that this carbon emissions increase every year at a rate of 0.31hm2/p leading to increased fluctuation in the world. These emissions are high in coal consumption followed by oil and natural gas.
The carbon dioxide emitted by dead animals which have decomposed in the land causing carbon footprint was also found in beef, from the animals which were feeding on the pasture on a specific land.
The other studies conducted show that some products released in the market have carbon which is resistant to microbiological decay, hence producing much hydrogen gas in the environment. Researches conducted by experts show that biomass can be renewed and be used as a simpler source of energy.
How to reduce carbon footprint?
The factories dealing with substance that release gaseous emission are also taking part in helping curbing the damages caused by the emissions. Thus this action creates a good working atmosphere as the market does not shift form on state to another. A company, which does not take action on reducing gas emissions, will be overtaken by other competitors taking part in curbing climate change. In addition the leaders of these organizations need to look for strategies of addressing this issue.
One step of reducing climate change is whereby the involved parties need to engage with the authorities in improving and developing climate policy; this policy will help the responsible legislation body ensure that the companies are registered to this policy and are ready to take actions as soon as possible. Therefore if a companies has been involved in enacting about climate change, it will be a great advantage because in coming days the market of climate related products and services will grow and only this factories will benefit first. This is because the climate legislation board will get rid of those companies which are less concerned on climate change.
Biomass Utilization
Some methods have been put forward on how to utilize biomass, some scientists say that one can use biofuels from aquatic micro bacteria's such as algae. They further note that this micro bacteria's use as small or no portion of land and can be converted into liquid fuels when certain technology are employed, thus they provide other uses which fossil fuels would not offer.
Lastly, we need to reduce the amount of gaseous emissions from our vehicles and factories and also utilize the available biomass. With these developments our economy will grow at a rapid rate.
