  2013 FEB 11 (VerticalNews) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Global Warming Focus -- A new study on Greenhouse Gases is now available. According to news reporting out of Gurgaon, India, by VerticalNews editors, research stated, "Conventional puddled transplanted rice (TPR) is a major source of greenhouse gas (GHG), particularly methane, causing global warming. Direct-seeded rice (DSR) is a feasible alternative to mitigate methane emission, besides saving water and labor. ...read more

  2012 DEC 3 (VerticalNews) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Global Warming Focus -- Researchers detail new data in Greenhouse Gases. According to news reporting originating from Melbourne, Australia, by VerticalNews correspondents, research stated, "Changes in energy subsidies for Indian agriculture and the introduction of a carbon tax in Australia have the potential to impact on energy use practices in groundwater-irrigated agriculture in both countries. A general framework for the accounting of life cycle greenhouse gas emissions and life cycle energy consumption from groundwater-irrigated agriculture was developed using life cycle and supply chain analyses to examine the contributing aspects of groundwater irrigation to total associated greenhouse gas emissions and energy use. ...read more

  2012 NOV 5 (VerticalNews) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Global Warming Focus -- Current study results on Greenhouse Gases have been published. According to news reporting from Rajasthan, India, by VerticalNews journalists, research stated, "This paper presents for the first time correlations for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from small hydropower schemes in India. In this paper an attempt has been made to develop life cycle GHG emissions correlations for three different types of small hydropower schemes (run-of river, canal based and dam-toe) in India. ...read more
