14 Emission Quotes for You to Enjoy

Approximately 80% of our air pollution stems from hydrocarbons released by vegetation, so let's not go overboard in setting and enforcing tough emission standards from man-made sources. Ronald Reagan

Tough Setting Our Air Air Pollution Approximately Released Emission Stems Vegetation Overboard Go Sources Man-Made Pollution Enforcing Standards

If we have an atom that is in an excited state and so is going to emit a photon, we cannot say when it will emit the photon. It has a certain amplitude to emit the photon at any time, and we can predict only a probability for emission; we cannot predict the future exactly. Richard P. Feynman

Future Time Will Predict State Say We Cannot Exactly Atom Only Emission Excited Any Going Probability Cannot Certain

Governments started negotiating towards emission reduction in 1990. That's when the official negotiations started. Naomi Klein

Negotiating Negotiations Emission Towards Reduction Governments Official Started

It is impossible for Bangladesh alone to take action against the rising sea level, as it has been a cumulative effect of global emission in which Bangladesh does not have any role. It is the responsibility of global community to address this issue as urgently as possible. Sheikh Hasina

Alone Impossible Responsibility Community Action Address Possible Has-Been Rising Emission Take Global Does Issue Been Effect Cumulative Role Bangladesh Any Which Against Urgently Sea Level

I do not believe we can effectively move Australia to a lower emission economy, which is what we need to do if we're going to make a contribution to a global reduction in greenhouse gases, without putting a price on carbon. Malcolm Turnbull

Undoubtedly, at the moment, the major cause of CO2 emission is what happens in developed countries. Chris Patten

Cause Emission Developed Developed Countries Countries Major Undoubtedly Happens CO2 Moment

In my view the structure of the whole atom was that of an individual, with all its parts interconnected, and the emission of a spectral line appeared to me to be the result of the coherence and co-operation of several electric quanta. Johannes Stark

Me Result Several Atom Structure Emission Individual Parts Line Interconnected Co-Operation View Electric Whole Appeared Coherence

For my Ph.D. thesis, I was measuring the electrical activity that triggers light emission from a bioluminescent dinoflagellate. As I was nearing the completion of my degree, my major professor wrote a grant for an instrument for measuring the color of very dim light flashes from bioluminescent animals. Edith Widder

Light Degree Animals Completion Dim Triggers Emission Color Major Wrote Instrument Very Flashes Grant Electrical Measuring Thesis Activity Professor

A new laboratory technique, positron emission tomography, uses radioactively labeled oxygen or glucose that essentially lights up specific and different areas of the brain being activated when a person speaks words or sees words or hears words, revealing the organic location for areas of behavioral malfunction. Floyd Skloot

Words Organic Location Sees Area Emission Lights New Revealing Brain Hears Malfunction Labeled Up Laboratory Person Behavioral Essentially Being Oxygen Different Different Areas Speaks Uses Specific Technique

In the tail above the giant resonance, you can get not just one neutron emitted but two, three, four or five, and so there are a lot of things one can measure, looking at the competition with the emission of neutrons and protons and so on. John Henry Carver

You Competition Three Looking Resonance Giant Above Emission Tail Lot Five Get Just Just One Measure Things Four Two

When you have energy companies like Shell and British Petroleum, both of which are perhaps represented in this room, saying there is a problem with excess carbon dioxide emission, I think we ought to listen. James Baker

Each emission of an alpha or beta ray accompanies the transmutation of an atom; the energy communicated to these rays comes from inside the atom. Irene Joliot-Curie

Energy Inside Atom Beta Emission Ray Rays Alpha Accompanies Each

We have shown that it is possible to create a radioactivity characterized by the emission of positive or negative electrons in boron and magnesium by bombardment with alpha rays. Irene Joliot-Curie

Positive Negative Characterized Possible Emission Rays Alpha Create Electron Shown
