Ways to reduce your impact on climate change in 2021
Climate change is at the forefront of the political sphere as we head into 2021 and with the new administration. However, climate change is complex and can be overwhelming. While real solutions will require action on a global scale, you can make small changes in your day-to-day life to lower your impact on the environment. 1. Know your carbon footprint. A carbon footprint is the total amount of greenhouse gas emissions that come from the production, use of, and end of life of a product or service. This includes carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and fluorinated gases (among other gases)

Capturing carbon emissions from industrial sources and pulling carbon out of the air via direct air capture are technologies we will likely need in our toolbox if we are to achieve net zero or negative greenhouse gas emissions.
The problem is that the only existing market for captured carbon is enhanced oil recovery (CO 2-EOR ). Enhanced recovery is a commonly used form of oil production that involves injecting fluids underground to make oil and gas flow to the surface
