    • Abstract:
      The concentration of the primary greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide) are increasing in the atmosphere at concerning rates. This presentation will cover how we measure greenhouse gas emissions from the various sources including: agriculture, mining, oil & gas, and urban environments. Case studies will be presented from the Hunter Valley, the Surat Basin and Sydney. Do you know how much carbon dioxide is emitted by people breathing? How much carbon dioxide and methane are emitted by an audience in a lecture theatre? Which sector in Australia emits more methane - oil & gas, or cattle farming? We will explore these questions as part of the presentation.
