Offset Sources donated through the Cleaner and Greener Program to offset
the 2003 EnviroDesign7 Conference emissions.
- E.I duPont
de Nemours and Company (Dupont Antron) donated year 2003
vintage emission reductions of 5,011 pounds of nitrous oxide (N2O)
emissions resulting from an emissions reduction project at the Sabine
River Works plant in Orange, TX. Using U.S. EPA global warming potential
equivalence factors, this has the same global warming reduction impact
as a reduction of 1.55 million pounds of CO2 emissions.
- Leonardo Academy
donated and retired emission reductions to offset the SO2
emissions caused by this event. Source: U.S. EPA SO2
Allowance Serial Number 200200199982 purchased by the Cleaner and
Greener Program in 2002.
- Philips
Lighting North America donated CO2 emission reductions
from one of their internal manufacturing facility energy efficiency
projects reported through the Cleaner and Greener Certification Program.
- Johnson Controls
Inc. donated CO2 emission reductions from one of their
internal facility energy efficiency projects reported through the
Cleaner and Greener Certification Program.
- Donations will also continue to be gathered to support emission offsets from Conference Attendees, Exhibitors, and
Sponsors
