plant in Orange, Texas. Using U.S. EPA global warming potential equivalence
factors, this has the same global warming reduction impact as a reduction of
251 tons (228 metric tonnes) of Carbon Dioxide emissions. These donated
emission reductions will be of the year 2003 vintage.

SO2 emissions caused by this event. Source: U.S. EPA SO2
