' , Greenhouse Gas Reduction and Climate Adaptation Actions to �.,�� <br /> IntegratedBuild Local Resilience to Climate Change xIN►'�► - <br /> CLIMATE CASCADE I : <br /> GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS <br /> Climate Cascade 1 focuses on the primary drivers of climate change - anthropogenic greenhouse gas <br /> emissions (GHGs) - and the community systems on Hawaii Island that emit GHGs (Figure 8). This <br /> section describes and evaluates this climate cascade and identifies intervention points for County <br /> actions and the potential co-benefits of such actions. The County of Hawaii Greenhouse Gas <br /> Inventory, summarizing island-wide emission sources and sinks, provides a baseline for the <br /> intervention points and informs the cascade narrative. Intervention points for County actions are <br /> identified along with climate co-benefits. <br /> Cascade 1: Greenhouse Gas Emissions <br /> COMMUNITY SYSTEMS <br /> building electricity 8 energy production transportation waste land use <br /> housing fossil fuels mass transit solid waste deforestation family farms <br /> schools on-site energy commutes wastewater <br /> production development ranching <br /> recreational facilities trucking <br /> land management industrial farming <br /> commercial facilities aviation <br /> invasive species <br /> marine transportation <br /> 1A 1B 1C 1D __j <br /> greenhouse <br /> gas <br /> emissions <br /> Figure 8.Climate Cascade 1.Greenhouse gas emissions <br /> Climate Cascade 1:Greenhouse Gas Emissions 17 <br />
