The report includes data for its greenhouse gas emissions from energy use, waste, water, the fleet of vehicles, business travel, as well as procurement – from printing paper and laboratory equipment, to complete computer hardware solutions. […]
Scientists from the University of York are taking part in a national research project to measure air quality across the UK, which aims to provide new insight into the formation of air pollution and its impact on people. Launched in the build up to Clean Air Day, (Thursday 17th June) […]
The opening of the new cohort of the Young Manager School took place on June 2 in Russia is My History Park. The ceremony was attended by Governor of Saratov Region Valerii Radayev, Chair of the Saratov Regional Duma Alexander Romanov, Vice-Governor Igor Pivovarov, ministers, and rectors of partner universities […]
Studies by scholars of Samara National Research University will help create more environmentally friendly aircraft engines with lower levels of carcinogenic emissions into the atmosphere. Active development of air transport leads to constant pollution of the atmosphere with various chemicals – carbon oxides, sulfur, nitrogen, as well as hydrocarbons. Emissions […]
