The EPA has taken the next step with the signing of the Endangerment Finding that officially places GHG emissions under the regulatory authority of the Clean Air Act. The EPA has also recently proposed a rule that would require carbon intensive facilities to implement "best practices and technologies" to minimize GHG emissions. Carbon intensive organizations need to look beyond mandatory reporting of GHG emissions and begin to implement programs to reduce the carbon intensity of facilities and processes. Whether your organization is directly or indirectly affected by GHG regulation, the time to prepare is now. Organizations that proactively prepare for GHG regulation will be positioned to capitalize on opportunities to reduce energy use and improve environmental performance.
