Conference · · World Resource Review; (United States)
OSTI ID:6576480
This paper describes the role of industry as a source of greenhouse gases, the potential effect of these gases on global warming and the growth rate of industrial emissions and atmospheric concentration of CO[sub 2] under alternative energy efficiency scenarios. Technologies whose development would improve industrial energy efficiency and reduce CO[sub 2] emissions from industry are then discussed. The US Climate Change Action Plan initiatives that would stimulate adoption of energy efficient and pollution preventing technologies in industry are outlined.
