State of energy consumption and CO sub2 emission in Bangladesh
Article Abstract:
An examination of the energy consumption in Bangladesh is made and an approximation of carbon dioxide emitted from the combustion of fossil fuels from 1977 to 1995 is made using the International Panel for Climate Change guidelines for national greenhouse gas inventories. The study concluded that consumption of fossil fuel and also the emission of carbon dioxide from fossil fuel is increasing by 5% every year as shown by the energy data while the petroleum products were major contributes to carbon dioxide emission than natural gas whose use is rapidly increasing.

Avoiding emissions of carbon dioxide through the use of fuels derived from sugar cane
Article Abstract:
Research shows that greenhouse gas emissions can be significantly reduced through fuels derived from ethyl alcohol and sugarcane bagasse. This combination can be used as gasoline and for electricity generation. Although alcohol is more costly than regular gasoline due to low 1998 oil prices, its expense may be mitigated through technological advancements.
