(2) Biomass and crops for animals are as damaging as [burning] fossil fuels.” The recommendation follows advice last year that a vegetarian diet was better for the planet from Lord Nicholas Stern , former adviser to the Labour government on the economics of climate change.
(3) Bobbing in warming waters, this ancient ice fossil will be gone in a couple of weeks.
(4) The pendulum swung even further with growing fossil, archaeological and genetic data in the 1990s.
(5) This is triggered not so much by climate change but the cause of global warming itself: the burning of fossil fuels both inside and outside the home, says Farrar.
(6) This approximately 40-Myr-old specimen is the first fossil primate found in Burma since the fragmentary remains of the controversial earliest anthropoids Pondaungia cotteri Pilgrim and Amphipithecus mogaungensis Colbert were recovered more than 50 yr ago.
(7) Comparison of these tracks and the Hadar hominid foot fossils by Tuttle has led him to conclude that Australopithecus afarensis did not make the Tanzanian prints and that a more derived form of hominid is therefore indicated at Laetoli.
(8) Because the fossil fuel industry faces a closing pincers.
(9) The reputations of companies linked to fossil fuels are at immediate risk from a fast-growing divestment campaign, one of Europe’s biggest asset managers has warned.
(10) The first report, released last September in Stockholm , found humans were the "dominant cause" of climate change, and warned that much of the world's fossil fuel reserves would have to stay in the ground to avoid catastrophic climate change.
(11) The methods described make possible the preparation of fossil samples for light nad transmission electron microscopy.
(12) This would force them to move rapidly away from fossil fuels in just a few years, something which they say is impossible to do given their limited finances and need to improve the lives of their people.
(13) That means eliminating fossil fuel subsidies as well.
(14) The branching pattern derived from the DNA comparisons is congruent with the fossil evidence and supported by comparative biochemical, chromosomal, and morphological studies.
(15) This method ensures the good preservation of spatial relations between bone elements essential for studies of fossil bones, which are sometimes very brittle.
(16) Driven by a desire to reduce dependence on imported fossil fuels and promote a secure supply of energy, the government of Albania has been very eager to encourage increased investment in renewable energy and in 2013 a law was passed to promote renewable energy .
(17) What the Chinese want is resources, especially fossil fuels.
(18) Each country can discover how much CO2 it emits by calculating the volume of fossil fuels it burns, usually through imports and the tax system.
(19) Plus, unlike planet-screwing fossil fuels, solar could actually be subsidy-free in a few years.
(20) ('76), viz., that the fossil is "unique" among Hominoids, is essentially correct.
