The Kyoto Protocol mandates that greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions be reduced. The landfill industry is increasingly being viewed as an economically and technically attractive way of accomplishing a portion of the required emission reductions. One of the most effective ways to reduce GHG emissions from landfills is to implement or improve the collection and destruction of landfill gas (LFG) being generated. Policies and regulations governing the validation of these reductions have created a need for improved monitoring and reporting of LFG destruction. This paper presents a case study of the monitoring and reporting for a Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) project in Brazil.
