TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the energy consumption of the iron and steel industry in seven countries (Brazil, China, France, Germany, Japan, Poland and the United States) for the period 1980-1991.

TL;DR: It is shown that implementation of current policies leaves a median emission gap of 22.4 to 28.2 GtCO 2 eq by 2030 with the optimal pathways to implement the well below 2 °C and 1.5‬C Paris goals, which shows that all countries would need to accelerate the implementation of policies for renewable technologies, while efficiency improvements are especially important in emerging countries and fossil-fuel-dependent countries.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Global Warming potential index (GWP) to quantitatively compare the integrated greenhouse effect of different gases and applied it to the case of emissions from some hydroelectric reservoirs in Brazil.

TL;DR: In this paper, an empirically derived mechanism that offers a mix of incentives to developing countries to reduce emissions from deforestation, conserve and possibly enhance their ecosystem's carbon stocks is presented.
