It is envisaged that all the biomass or residuals used at the park will be collected regionally, within a radius of about 200 km, including paper sludge from the local paper industry (Phase 1).
These research findings were much more than an academic exercise; they provided key evidence for policy changes, including the introduction of clean public buses in New York City and the industry phase-out of bisphenol A (BPA) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs)—chemicals used in plastics and flame-retardants.
In the '90s, the industry phased in the use of HFC-134a, a refrigerant that required a redesign of the air-conditioning systems.

EI and Pembina modeled the PCF's 12 policies including a national carbon tax, clean fuel standard (for industry, transportation, and buildings), policies to boost EV sales, building energy efficiency standards, methane and refrigerant (F-gas) emissions reductions from industry, phasing out coal by 2030, and eliminating existing fossil fuel subsidies.
To start with, new investments in coal, oil and gas exploration and development must end by 2020, with the existing fossil fuel industry phased out by midcentury.
That plan, still being written, will include a cap on greenhouse gas emissions only for utilities, at least at first, with other industries phased in perhaps years later.
The commission and the Environmental Protection Agency reached an agreement with the lumber industry to phase out wood treated with chromated copper arsenate for consumer uses starting Dec. 30.
