652Municipality of Campinas35897BrazilCampinas2015WasteRecyclables and organics separation from other wasteCampinas City Hall implemented the Selective Waste Collection, aiming to collect differently solid waste that can be recycled. All the collected material is redirected to social cooperatives of recyclable material sorting, working together with the City. They are responsible for the separation of the material according to the composition and selling to companies for reuse for diverse purposes. In many parts of the city there are Ecopontos, reception buildings and temporary storage of waste resulting from the voluntary deliver, preventing irregular disposal in the environment. Environmental education plays an important role in the whole process, as a contribution to the success of the selective collection program, promoting awareness and support of the people. Among the several areas of environmental education program, we emphasize the implementation of educational lectures and the development of the "Trash-Tour" with organized communities in environmental education events, and integrated operations with other departments, municipal authorities, non-governmental organizations, companies and cooperatives in municipal events, contributing to the formation of multipliers.(-22.744027°, -46.937174°)(-14.235004°, -51.92528°)

O inventário tem como objetivos principais informações desde a gestão de risco de emissões de GEE até a identificação de oportunidades de redução, passando por incentivos a programas voluntários de redução e/ou remoção de GEE, aprimoramento regulatório, reconhecimento de pioneirismo e antecipação de medidas. Para a realização desse inventário são analisadas e estimadas as diversas fontes de emissão de GEE, obedecendo-se a uma sistemática que inclui a maior parte das emissões decorrentes das atividades socioeconômicas no município, de acordo com as Diretrizes do IPCC (2006). Os resultados que se esperam alcançar através desse inventário são a identificação da quantidade de emissões de GEE e as ações futuras que serão colocadas em prática para a diminuição e/ou neutralização dessas emissões.(-15.601411°, -56.097892°)(-14.235004°, -51.92528°)

668Gobierno Municipal de León de los Aldamas50359MexicoLeón de los Aldamas2015Outdoor LightingLED / CFL / other luminaire technologies371.2Introducir un sistema de energía eficiente y sustentable en la pista de caminata del Parque Metropolitano de León. Se inaguró el 26 de septiembre de 2013 la iluminación de los 7.2 kilómetros lineales que conforman la Pista de Caminata del Parque Metropolitano, en la que se invirtieron 5 millones 256 mil pesos y 2 millones más en páneles solares, con lo que se beneficiarán directamente 1 millón 500 mil visitantes y deportistas cada año. Gracias al trabajo conjunto entre la Dirección General de Obras Públicas y la Dirección del Parque Metropolitano, fueron instaladas 282 luminarias a lo largo de la pista, lo cual permitirá que los visitantes se activen físicamente con mayor seguridad y en el horario vespertino y nocturno. Las lámparas instaladas utilizan luminarios LEDs que disminuyen considerablemente el consumo de energía con las cuales se genera mayor eficiencia de la energía eléctrica, reduce el consumo, el costo económico por pago, así como contribuye a la reducción de emisiones de efecto invernadero precursores del cambio climático. Así mismo, contribuyendo con la introducción de energías renovables como fuentes generadores de electricidad, se instaló un sistema de energía fotovoltaica conformado por 120 piezas de 195 watts cada una, con lo cual se logra una potencia instalada de 23, 400 Watts. Estas obras se suman a la nueva zona infantil, la mejora de áreas verdes, el nuevo sistema de riego y la barda Amazonas que recientemente se realizaron en el parque. Con estas acciones que significan inversión en infraestructura de calidad y con un fin social, se pretende mantener el reconocimiento que poseé el Metropolitano por albergar grandes eventos de talla nacional e internacional. Gracias a esta infraestructura, el Patronato del Parque Metropolitano pudo extender el horario de servicio por la tarde, cerrando sus puertas dos horas mas tarde y con ello incrementar el número de visitantes de 1 millón 400 mil personas anuales a 2 millones.(21.132751°, -101.678184°)(23.634501°, -102.552784°)
