CONCEPT PAPER FOR DISCUSSION Strategies to Achieve a Reduction in Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Glass Manufacturing Facilities
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The Air Resources Board (ARB) has the primary responsibility for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in California under the Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 (AB 32). The overall mandate is to achieve 1990 GHG emission levels by 2020. In our efforts to reduce GHG emissions mandated by AB 32, ARB staff is currently working on multiple sector-specific GHG activities. The glass manufacturing plants are a source of GHG emissions and have been identified as a potential subcategory under the business/industry sector. ARB staff is evaluating possible strategies that the glass manufacturing industry can implement to achieve GHG emission reductions. This concept paper will give an overview on the industry and summarize the strategies that ARB staff will be evaluating.
