298 kg CO2 eq./ADMT of pulp (F) |
The significant reduction (-53%) in GHG between 2006 and 2008 is due to lower fossil fuel usage and implementation of an aggressive energy reduction program. The fossil fuel reduction is mainly attributed to the closure of an oil-fired boiler at the mill.
F = the value is derived from an emission factor
M = the value is derived from direct measurements
