(5) The 2C target means only a quarter of existing, exploitable fossil fuel reserves are burnable , according to a series of recent analyses, implying that trillions of dollars of oil, gas and coal held by investors could become worthless and that further exploration for fossil fuels may be pointless.
(6) They also comment that carbon capture and storage could increase the amount of “burnable” carbon.
(7) The 2C target means only a quarter of existing, exploitable fossil fuel reserves are burnable, according to a series of recent analyses.
(8) Only a quarter of existing, exploitable fossil fuel reserves are burnable if global warming is not to exceed dangerous levels, according to recent analyses.
Combustible
Definition:

(3) N-heterocyclic aromatics are environmentally important carcinogenic pollutants produced by incomplete combustion of organic material.
(4) A removable, stainless-steel tube is present around the heated area, and this particular configuration makes it possible to begin every combustion procedure from room temperature, and consequently, to achieve a complete evacuation of air from the line even for heat-labile samples.
(5) Combustion-product toxicity of perfluorinated polymers in small-scale tests varied markedly under various exposure conditions.
