Global Warming Solutions

Top Ten

1.Remove carbon from the atmosphere and store it in biomass or soil.

Carbon biological capture

2. Carbon geological capture

Capture carbon and store it in underground geologic formations.

Produce products that reduce greenhouse gases by serving as substitutes for fossil fuels.

3. Bio products

Contain methane emissions

landfill recovery, bio digesters, cattle & feed efficiency, coal mine methane recovery, and natural gas facilities.

4. Methane

Buy or sell credits that represent reduction or offset of greenhouse gases.

5. Greenhouse gas markets

Use electric and heating efficiency strategies to reduce greenhouse gases and save money.

6. Electric & heating efficiency

Implement efficiency improvements in engines, transmissions, aero-dynamics, and tire drag in light-duty vehicles.

7. Vehicle efficiency

A short-term solution -wind and solar produce virtually no greenhouse gases as a byproduct of power production.

8. Wind & solar power

Develop hydrogen and electric as energy sources.

9. Low or no-carbon energy systems

Refuel with cleaner fuels…Retrofit with pollution controls…

Replace older vehicles…Reduce idling.

10.Cleaner diesel
