Waste diversion offers a significant opportunity to reduce greenhouse gas emmisions in California. I urge the ARB to include recycling, composting and waste reduction measures in the scope being developed to impliment AB 32. Reducing our consumption of natural resources, developing markets for recycled products, reusing materials and products, and educating the public on the benefits from all of these should be important components of the AB 32 scope. Not only would there be an exponential impact on GHG emmision reduction due to upstream factors such as mining, production and transportaton, but additionally methane from landfills produces many times the greenhouse gas emmisions as C02. Ulimately, reducing landfilling is an important factor. Bob Figoni Assistant Solid Waste Director City of Ontario |
