The Pennsylvania Recycling Markets Center will conduct an evening program titled “Carbon Climate Initiatives for Recycling” from 5 p.m.– 6 p.m.October 22 at Penn State Harrisburg.

The program will be presented by Dr. Scott Subler, president of Environmental Credit Corp., a leading supplier of environmental credits to global financial markets. Dr. Subler is actively involved in the development of projects that mitigate greenhouse gases and provides expertise for the development of policy and protocols for U.S. and international carbon offset programs.

“This is an opportunity for people to realize that greenhouse gas reduction can be achieved through manufacture of recycled content products,” RMC Executive Director Robert Bylonev said.

It is estimated that recycling in Pennsylvania reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 2.1 million metric tons of carbon equivalents per year, which is approximately equal to 6 percent of all industrial carbon equivalent emissions from fossil fuels.

If you would like to attend “Carbon Credit Initiatives for Recycling” program, please RSVP by October 19 at 717.948.6660 or send email to: info@parmc.org .
