Carbon offsetting is a way to "cancel out" carbon emissions that have been spewed into the atmosphere. It works by letting emitters(including individuals, governments or businesses) fund and take credit for greenhouse gas reductions from a different project or activity elsewhere. 5, record 1, English, - carbon%20offsetting

CN gas, or chloroacetophenone or phenacyl chloride, is a substance used as a riot control agent.... It was investigated, but not used, during the First and Second World Wars, and was used by United States forces in Vietnam. Because of its greater toxicity, it has largely been supplanted by CS gas. CN is still supplied to paramilitary and police forces in a small pressurized aerosol can known as "Mace" or tear gas. Its use has fallen by the wayside as pepper spray works faster and disperses more quickly than CN. 3, record 6, English, - CN%20gas

The Earth is surrounded by a blanket of air, which we call the atmosphere. It reaches over 560 kilometers(348 miles) from the surface of the Earth, so we are only able to see what occurs fairly close to the ground.... Life on Earth is supported by the atmosphere, solar energy, and our planet's magnetic fields. The atmosphere absorbs the energy from the Sun, recycles water and other chemicals, and works with the electrical and magnetic forces to provide a moderate climate. The atmosphere also protects us from high-energy radiation and the frigid vacuum of space. The envelope of gas surrounding the Earth changes from the ground up. Four distinct layers have been identified using thermal characteristics(temperature changes), chemical composition, movement, and density [:] the troposphere..., the stratosphere..., the mesophere..., the thermosphere. The exosphere starts at the top to the thermosphere and continues until it merges with interplanetary gases, or space. In this region of the atmosphere, Hydrogen and Helium are the prime components and are only present at extremely low densities. 3, record 9, English, - Earth%27s%20atmosphere

Notre Terre est entourée d'une couche de gaz qui l'entoure. Cette couche est appelée atmosphère terrestre. Elle se compose à 78 % d'azote, 21 % d'oxygène, 0,9 % d'argon, 0,03 % de dioxyde de carbone et des traces d'autres gaz dont du dioxyde de carbone. L'atmosphère est indispensable à la survie de la planète. Elle absorbe une partie des rayons ultra violets du soleil grâce à la couche d'ozone et maintient une température constante sur terre afin de rendre la vie possible grâce à l'effet de serre. L'atmosphère intervient également dans le cycle de l'eau qu'elle permet de recycler. L'atmosphère est épaisse de 480 km mais 90 % des gaz se trouvent entre 0 km et 10 km au-dessus du niveau de la mer. 2, record 9, French, - atmosph%C3%A8re%20terrestre

The device works on the principle that gas is lighter than oil and rises. As well fluids enter the anchor, the gas breaks out of the fluid and exits the anchor through perforations near the top. The remaining fluids enter the pump through a mosquito bill(a tube within the anchor), which has an opening near the bottom of the anchor. In this way, all or most of the gas is given the opportunity to escape before the fluids enter the pump. 2, record 11, English, - gas%20anchor

Several [internal cooling] systems have been developed that incorporate three basic approaches : liquified gas, super-cold air with water vapor, and air exchange methods.... The super-cold air system with water vapor works much the same way [as the liquified gas system]. Here, very dry, subzero blowing air expands the parison. The expanded air is allowed to circulate through the bottle and exhaust. Immediately after the parison has expanded, a fine mist of water is injected into the cold air stream. As it flows, the water mist turns into snow. As the snow circulates through the container, it melts and then vaporizes. At the end of the molding cycle, the water mist is stopped, permitting the circulating air to purge and dry the interior before the mold is opened and the part is removed. Production rates can be improved as much as 50%. 1, record 12, English, - super%2Dcold%20air%20system%20with%20water%20vapor

Le temps de refroidissement devient pratiquement proportionnel au carré de l'épaisseur, c'est pourquoi on a songé à compléter le refroidissement par contact avec l'empreinte par un refroidissement interne selon les différents procédés décrits ci-après. a) Renouvellement de l'air de soufflage. [...] b) Balayage au dioxyde de carbone. [...] c) Procédé ISC (Internal Surface Cooling). Ce procédé breveté, basé sur l'expansion adiabatique, est développé par la Société américaine Hunkar; il consiste à injecter à haute pression (70 bar) un mélange d'air et d'eau, qui, par une brusque détente, va provoquer l'apparition de cristaux de glace sur les parois internes du corps creux. Ces cristaux vont d'abord fondre, libérant l'enthalpie de fusion de la glace. Les gouttelettes vont ensuite s'échauffer puis se vaporiser en absorbant la chaleur du corps creux équivalant à l'enthalpie de vaporisation de l'eau. La réduction du temps de refroidissement par ce procédé peut atteindre 50%. Comme le balayage au CO2, ce procédé s'avère intéressant pour des corps creux à parois relativement épaisses (plus de 0,5 mm). d) Procédé ALEX. [...] 1, record 12, French, - proc%C3%A9d%C3%A9%20ISC
