摘要

Jurisdictions across the U.S. are adopting green, or sustainability, goals, and implementing wide-ranging strategies to move toward those goals. Given the traditional information from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (Washington) on the sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, which indicate waste management contributes only about three percent of GHG emission sources, communities and policymakers tend to focus on energy-related programs that represent much bigger sources of emissions. Based on an analysis of the costs per metric ton of carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO_2E) of GHG emissions avoided, Skumatz Economic Research Associates, Inc.'s (Superior, Colorado) analysis indicates that faster and cheaper progress in reducing GHG could be made if communities take an early focus on solid waste programs. Solid waste programs provide quick and substantial reductions in GHG emissions, while providing a bridge to impacts from energy efficiency and transit strategies.
