What a Water-Cooled HVAC System Can Do for Your Building

摘要

Through its Climate Leaders program, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) works with organizations to develop long-term, comprehensive climate-change strategies. Setting corporate-wide greenhouse-gas (GHG) reduction goals is the first major step in implementing this process within your portfolio. The EPA's list of GHGs includes carbon dioxide (CO_2), methane (CH_4), nitrous acid (N_2O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perflurocarbons (PFCs), and sulfur hexafluorides (SF_6); CO_2 is at the top of the list. In fact, CO_2 emissions account for approximately 85 percent of GHG emissions in the United States.
