Top Ten

1.Remove carbon from theatmosphere and store it

in biomass or soil.Carbon biological

capture

2. Carbon geologicalcaptureCapture carbon and storeit in undergroundgeologic formations.

3. Bio productsProduce products thatreduce greenhouse gasesby serving as substitutesfor fossil fuels.

4. MethaneContain methane emissionslandfill recovery, bio digesters,cattle & feed efficiency, coalmine methane recovery, andnatural gas facilities.

. 5 Greenhouse gasmarketsBuy or sell credits thatrepresent reduction oroffset of greenhousegases.

6. Electric & heatingefficiencyUse electric and heatingefficiency strategies toreduce greenhouse gasesand save money.

7. Vehicle efficiencyImplement efficiencyimprovements in engines,transmissions, aerodynamics,and tire drag inlight-duty vehicles.

8. Wind & solar powerA short-term solution -wind and solar producevirtually no greenhousegases as a byproduct ofpower production.

9. Low or no-carbonenergy systemsDevelop hydrogen andelectric as energy sources.

10.Cleaner dieselRetrofit with pollution controls…Refuel with cleaner fuels…Replace older vehicles…Reduce idling.
