Alternative Fuels
• Bio- diesel – e.g. coco methyl ester/ coco – biodiesel
• Ethanol fuel/ E10
• 2700 MW of power from compressed natural gas for a period of 20 years, thus helping the country to reduce its dependence on imported fuel by as much as 30 percent.
• lower amounts of CO2, sulphur oxide and nitrogen oxide.

Payatas Garbage- to – Energy Project
• 2,000 megawatts of alternative energy
during the project’s 10-year life.

Montalban Waste - to – Energy ProjectOperated by Montalban Methane Power Corp. (MMPC) with an expected 500,000 carbon credits from the operations of its
power plant at the Rodriguez landfill in the next five years. The P1.5-billion methane power plant began operations in 2009
with an initial output of two megawatts of electricity which is expected to increase to 15 megawatts of power per year,
which can sustain roughly 15,000 households. The plant is expected to run through 1,500 tons of garbage per day from the
14 ha. landfill.

SMART Telecommunications
SMART’s “Alternative Power for Cell Sites” program uses renewable energy sources to power cell sites in “off-grid locations” or areas where setting up and operating a cell site is not normally feasible. To date, Smart has about 68 cell sites in different areas across the Philippines powered by renewable energy. Of this figure, 41 are run by wind energy while 27 are hybrid –using both wind and solar energy.
Benefits of the program include reduced operational costs due to lower diesel consumption, reduced oil spills and carbon emissions, better community relations and seamless data/ voice service in off-grid areas.
• At the GSMA Global Mobile Awards in Barcelona, Spain on Feb 18, 2009 SMART is awarded the very first Green Mobile Awardgiven by the worldwide industry association for the company's use of alternative power (wind/ solar) for cell sites in remote areas.

LEED/ BERDE Green Buildings Rating Systems
(March 31, 2009) – Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NYSE: TXN) today
announced that its newest building in the Philippines, located in Baguio City,
is now LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified,
making it the first LEED-certified building in the country. It is oriented with
respect to the sun path to minimize unwanted heat gain and maximize natural
daylighting. The building is well insulated with a reflective roof to further
reduce heat gain. The efficiency measures resulted in a 24 percent reduction
in energy use. Extensive water reuse and recycling resulted in a 70 percent
reduction in water consumption.

• Clinker production requires intensive use of raw materials and energy, and also results in emissions to the atmosphere, the most significant being CO2. Holcim is reducing its demand for natural resources and its CO2 emissions per tonne of product by replacing fossil fuels and raw materials with waste and industrial by-products.

Green Goals for World Cup Aimed to reduce the environmental impact of the international sports tournament through � water conservation� garbage recycling, and � reduction of contaminating emissions into the atmosphere through wider use of public transport and clean energy source
In the 12 stadiums, tanks were installed to recover rainwater to be used for the sanitation system and the men's room urinals are cleaned automatically, without using water.
With the aim of curbing vehicle use, the admission tickets for the 64 matches allow the fans to ride public transportation services free of charge within a 24-hour period. In some stadiums, electricity is produced by solar cells for train stations and other public spaces. Total solar energy generation for the World Cup will be around 2,500 kilowatts during peak hours.
Instead of buying beverages in throwaway bottles or cans, drinks will be sold in recyclable containers. Expected 100,000 tons carbon dioxide from the flights and local travel of the 3.2 million tourists who will
visit the World Cup will be offset by an investment by the German government of some 1.5 billion dollars in environmental protection projects in Africa and Asia in a green credit exchange, and installations in India that produce biogas from fermented cattle manure to supplant the use of fossil fuels in community kitchens there
Efforts to reduce energy consumption during the international football tournament include recovering heat from the air conditioning systems of all of the stadiums and using highly efficient, emission-free gas boilers, as well as low-energy lightbulbs.
(Case Example): Carbon footprint for air travel to BAQ 2008?
Ref: Air Mile Calculator - http://www.airtimetable.com/Air_mile_calculator.htm / www.webflyer.com/travel/milemarker/index.php
Within Asia (0.24 kgCO2/mile) Outside Asia (0.18 kgCO2/mile)
Climate-friendly BAQ
The BAQ 2008 Organizing Committee is doing its share to reduce this year's carbon footprint
through the following:
• BAQ Carbon Pledge for self-funded and sponsored participants.
Participants are encouraged to be aware of the carbon footprint of their flight to Bangkok, and to
take personal measures to reduce their impact on climate change. Participants who apply for
sponsorship will need to submit the BAQ Carbon Pledge upon confirmation of their sponsorship.
• Reducing the use of bottled water during workshop. Estimated CO2 savings = 480kg CO2
Previous BAQs made use of bottled water during plenary, sub-plenary, subworkshops, pre-events
etc. An estimated 8,000 bottles of water was used in every BAQ. This year, your organizing
committee agreed with the IQP to avoid the use of bottled waters during the workshop.
• Reducing the use of paper for hand-outs: Estimated CO2 savings = 2,438kg CO2
The previous BAQs spent an average of up to 500 reams of paper (250,000 pages) for hand-outs -
equivalent to 4,204 kg CO2. For BAQ 2008, the Organizing Committee shall limit the hand-outs to
be given and shall provide soft copies of the presentations and other pertinent documents
instead. The committee also prints in advance a Compendium of Abstracts (average 70 pages, 1000
copies) which is roughly equivalent to 1,177 kg CO2. This year the BAQ organizing committee will
not print a Compendium of Abstracts and will instead post in the BAQ website the abstracts a
week before BAQ. BAQ 2008 will also reduce availability of photocopied materials by at least 30%.
Climate-friendly BAQ continued
• Eliminating the need for bus travel during the BAQ: Estimated CO2 savings = 95kg
CO2
Previous BAQs shuttled participants between hotels and the venue as well as hotels
and the social event venues. This is the first BAQ wherein the participants will not have
to ride buses from their hotels to the venue of the event. The Organizing Committee of
the BAQ has made it a point that the participants be housed in hotels which are near
the venue to eliminate unecessary travel and CO2 emissions. The venue for BAQ 2008,
Imperial Queen's Park Hotel, is also a short walk away from the train station. The total
estimated distance travelled for the shuttles was 500km, equivalent to 95kg CO2.
• Implementing the cool-biz approach
The BAQ Organizing Committee will implement a cool-biz approach for BAQ 2008. This
year, the organizers are encouraging the participants to wear light business attire (no
coats, jackets and ties) so they feel cool during the workshop while the temperatures of
air conditioners are set at 26 degrees Celsius. It is fortunate that during the month of
November, the average temperature in Bangkok is about 27 degrees Celsius.
