The Impact

Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions occur, more or less, in all aspects of the petroleum industry's activities. Besides the direct emissions of some GHG, the petroleum industry is also characterised with high energy intensity usually followed by emissions of adverse gases, especially at old facilities, and also the products with high emission potential. Being the global industry and one of the major players on global market, the petroleum industry is also subjected to global regulatory provisions regarding GHG emissions. In this chapter, the impact of global climate change on the petroleum industry is discussed. The emissions from the petroleum industry are analysed with a special focus on greenhouse gases that occur in petroleum industry activities and types and sources of emissions from the petroleum industry activities. In addition, recommendations for estimation, monitoring, and reductions of GHG emissions from the petroleum industry are given.

Ghg Fluxes

The Great Plains region of the United States is an agricultural production center for the global market and, as such, an important source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This article uses historical agricultural census data and ecosystem models to estimate the magnitude of annual GHG fluxes from all agricultural sources (e.g., cropping, livestock raising, irrigation, fertilizer production, tractor use) in the Great Plains from 1870 to 2000. Here, we show that carbon (C) released during the plow-out of native grasslands was the largest source of GHG emissions before 1930, whereas livestock production, direct energy use, and soil nitrous oxide emissions are currently the largest sources. Climatic factors mediate these emissions, with cool and wet weather promoting C sequestration and hot and dry weather increasing GHG release. This analysis demonstrates the long-term ecosystem consequences of both historical and current agricultural activities, but also indicates that adoption of available alternative management practices could substantially mitigate agricultural GHG fluxes, ranging from a 34% reduction with a 25% adoption rate to as much as complete elimination with possible net sequestration of C when a greater proportion of farmers adopt new agricultural practices.

The Impact

This article examines the effects of fifteen major terror attacks perpetrated in the U.S. and Europe between 2001 and 2017 on a general global stock market index as well as on industry-specific indices, namely (1) airlines, (2) global hotels, restaurants, and leisure (hospitality), and (3) global utilities. Using an event-study method, we show that attacks tend to result in significant negative abnormal returns on the day of attack which, on occasion, persist for a few days. As expected, adverse market effects appear more pronounced, in terms of magnitude and persistence, for the global airline and hospitality industries than for the global utilities industry. Attacks in Europe since 2015 show no adverse global market effects, with two late exceptions (the London Bridge and Barcelona attacks, both in 2017). This might suggest that just when investors and markets seemed to have learned to cope with attacks, these two latter events caused some concern again. Implications of our findings for short- and long-term global investor strategy are discussed.
