Participants were encouraged to participate in the full series: \nThursday\, April 28th\nSession 1: Carbon Footprint Assessments – What & Why\nThe first session covered the “what” and “why” of conducting a greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory or carbon footprint analysis. In addition\, the session provided key concepts and resources to support the business case for climate action and the importance of good analysis as a springboard for climate action. \nThursday\, May 12th\nSession 2: Carbon Footprints Step-by-Step\nThe second session introduced participants to the protocols and standards used for conducting a greenhouse gas emissions inventory. It also covered the process for conducting an inventory or accounting for GHG reduction projects\, as well as existing calculators\, tools\, various registries and their validation and reporting requirements\, and available resources. \nThursday\, June 2nd\nSession 3: Case Studies of Carbon Footprinting\nThe third session focused on case studies of industries and organizations that have gone through greenhouse gas inventory exercises\, including lessons learned from establishing a baseline\, setting GHG reduction goals\, and working toward meeting those goals. \nThese webinars were brought to you by NEWMOA and the Northwest Pollution Prevention Resouce Center (PPRC) with funding support from the Pollution Prevention Resource Exchange (P2Rx).

Climate Change Mitigation with Materials\, Products\, & Waste DESCRIPTION:This webinar provided an overview of how the life cycle of materials contributes to greenhouse gas emissions – and how materials management approaches\, including recycling\, composting\, and waste and pollution prevention\, and environmentally preferable procurement – offer significant opportunities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Materials management is often underutilized in climate action plans because of how conventional greenhouse gas inventories treat these emissions\, and the presenters explained the importance of more comprehensive inventory approaches\, and how inventories can better reflect the emissions associated with materials – and emissions reduction potential of materials management. \nThe webinar also covered NEWMOA’s recently-released Climate-Waste Action Plan [PDF] and current initiatives underway to implement this Plan.
