Transcription de la présentation

  1. Playing with Fire? Ben West The Wilderness Committee

  2. When Considering Waste Management Options What Must be on the Table?

  3. Two Things You Need to Know about • Nanoparticles • Biogenic Carbon

  4. There are toxins in Garbage - Where does it go when incinerated?

  5. Scrubbers are used to reduce air pollution

  6. But they still create a “Landfill in the Sky”

  7. New Concern of Nanoparticles

  8. Particles the size of a virus

  9. Climate Change

  10. International Day for Climate Action 2009 – Vancouver

  11. Context: “carbon free” by 2050 The UN IPCC says we must cut CO2 emissions almost entirely by 2050 in Canada Metro Vancouver has already committed to do this

  12. We have a responsibility to lead

  13. Not just about Polar Bears

  14. Impact already being felt

  15. Disproportionate Impacts

  16. Where are the CO2 emissions in our garbage coming from?

  17. Lets talk about “Biogenic” CO2

  18. If You Don’t Count Biogenic Carbon WTE looks like the best option

  19. Should we count Biogenic CO2?

  20. Increasing Calls for Awareness

  21. Isn’t it Carbon Neutral?

  22. 1 Hectare of Rainforest a Second

  23. At least 90 years to absorb CO2

  24. What does the IPCC Say About Biogenic CO2 from Incineration?

  25. So instead of Magical disappearing CO2

  26. We should agree that this is the fair way to represent CO2 from WTE

  27. Over all waste incineration is worse for the climate than a coal fired power plant 2008 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (E.P.A.) Report

  28. Would you build a coal fired power plant in your city?

  29. More CO2 than Natural Gas even without counting biogenic CO2 Therefore this isn’t a reduction in emissions for district heating even if you don’t count the biogenic CO2

  30. Its not actually a choice. Even if you stop using the landfill tomorrow landfill CO2 dissipation takes 20 - 25 years

  31. If we put all the organics back in the soil then the WTE emissions look like this no matter how you count it

  32. Isn’t this better?

  33. Composting is the answer

  34. If Nova Scotia can ban organics from landfill so can we…

  35. Plastics – not an energy solution a design problem
