Global WarmingGlobal Warming

Global warming is mainly the result of CO2 levels rising in the Earth’s atmosphere.

•CO2 level in the atmosphere has reached to almost 400 ppm.

•The upper safety limit for atmospheric CO2 is 350 parts per million (ppm).

•Atmospheric CO2 levels have stayed higher than 350ppm since early 1988.

Fossil Fuel ConsumptionFossil Fuel Consumption

•Fossil fuel consumption has a significant role in global warming.

•Oil consumption is responsible for 45% of CO2 emissions.

• More than half of the total oil consumption is used in transport.

•Coal, Oil, Natural gas is used for electricity generation.

•We use coal, oil, natural gas, and electricity in industry, building space heating and the like.

•All these contribute to CO2 emissions.

Existing Situation is Not Existing Situation is Not SustainableSustainable

EU has already committed to reduce green house gas emissions by at least %20 by 2020.

This is known as 20 20 20 by 2020 EU climate action.

There are many programs that will help to achieve this target mainly by using energy more efficiently and switching renewable energy sources.

Intelligent Energy Europe is one of the main EU sustainable energy programs.
