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.
