• ANTHROPOGENIC EMISSIONS: GENERAL

Item #d94apr24

"The Greenhouse Effect and US Landfill Methane," D. Augenstein (EMCON Assoc., 1921 Ringwood Ave., San Jose CA 95131), Global Environ. Change, 2(4), 311-328, Dec. 1992.

Estimates that over the next 10 years, U.S. landfill emissions will add about 1% to the total annual increase of greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere. A cost analysis suggests that landfill methane abatement is one of the most cost-effective measures against greenhouse emissions.
