Greenhouse Gas
Mitigation; Improving our Global Environment
Greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation includes an expansive understanding of
how energy development and use impact the global climate. This sample of
RC&D projects reported to the National Association of Resource
Conservation & Development Councils reflects a broad spectrum of
activity that addresses global climate change issues. It also demonstrates
how successfully RC&D Councils can turn rapidly developing national
concerns into local action. Impacts are evaluated by factors based on
local community needs; these factors are as diverse as America's
communities.

defined as any area not contained within a metro region. Finally, the
paper will look at specific sectors impacted by Federal non-metro policy
and where literary sources are available. The paper will contrast metro
