Grade A2 (Assesment 1 – A2 | Assessment 2 – A2)
Rationale
“The connection between increasing greenhouse gas emissions such as carbon dioxide and methane, and the subsequent changes to climate systems, is now largely accepted globally. It is apparent that the management of carbon emissions, and introduction of innovative methods to enhance carbon sequestration will become a requirement for a variety of industrial and service sectors. There are increasingly introductions of novel initiatives to determine the optimum management techniques and systems to reduce emissions, sequester carbon, mitigate impacts and adapt to future climates.
This module aims to provide honours students with an overview of these innovations in carbon management across disciplines and industries. Case studies will illustrate carbon management strategies in context, and in relation to carbon reduction policy and targets. The module will also review carbon economics and a range of innovative tools to support carbon management (i.e. carbon foot -printing and carbon budget modelling).”
