Verification Environmental Performance: Energy Energy Use Bristol-Myers Squibb collects and reports data on electricity use and fuel usage from our facilities worldwide. For worldwide fuel usage, our facilities track diesel fuel, gasoline, propane, fuel oil, coal, and natural gas. The vast majority of the fuel consumed by our facilities is natural gas, which produces less air pollution than coal or fuel oil. In addition to direct energy, which is the fuel used on-site directly by our facilities, we also track indirect energy, which includes fuel used to produce the electricity that is purchased by Bristol-Myers Squibb. Our total energy use (including direct and indirect energy use) increased by 5 percent from 2002 to 2003, or decreased by 9 percent when normalized by sales. This decrease is due in part to the implementation of best practices to conserve energy and thereby reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

A-Z Index Energy Burning fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas, and oil provides most of the energy for consumers in the United States. These forms of non-renewable energy produce greenhouse gases and other pollutants that could be harmful to the environment. EPA is promoting cleaner energy options, called "green power," that are becoming more readily available and sometimes infinitely renewable. These more sustainable power sources include wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, landfill gas and hydro power. An important EPA strategic goal focuses on efficient and productive energy use to ensure clean air and protect human health. In the long run, sustainable energy use will depend on more efficient, cleaner energy technologies and greater use of renewable energy sources. Many EPA regulatory and voluntary programs support cleaner air policies that are foundations for more efficient energy use. EPA is also a leader in promoting energy efficiency and sustainable energy use in the operation of its laboratories and facilities.

Employees at Interface Europe's Scherpenzeel, NL facility are serious about their contributions to the company's goals for sustainability and they're making a sizeable impact on the front of renewable energy. The Energy Mirror is centrally located in the building's reception lobby, allowing visitors to "look within" and see the success that the facility is experiencing in meeting its internal goals for energy efficiency and source reduction. The Energy Mirror's presence and the valuable data that it generates, have greatly increased employee awareness of opportunities for conservation and cost savings. It has allowed the associates to identify and correct a number of potentially costly issues that may have otherwise gone unnoticed, such as excess ventilation being provided during unoccupied periods, and the need for "stand-by" options on electronic office equipment. The Energy Mirror's presence has also been helpful to those responsible for data collection and quarterly reporting through the company's EcoMetrics system. Since the Energy Mirror's installation, it has become a regular stop on the company mill tour, allowing Interface to provide customers and others with tangible examples of the positive advancements the company is making along the path to sustainability.

Sealing Air and Moisture Leaks: Check for holes or cracks around your walls, ceilings, windows, doors, light and plumbing fixtures, switches, and electrical outlets that can leak air into or out of your home. Check for open fireplace dampers. Make sure your appliances and heating and cooling systems are properly maintained. Look for ways to use daylighting, reduce the time the lights are on, and replace incandescent bulbs and fixtures with compact fluorescent lamps or standard fluorescent lamps. source: http://www.eren.doe.gov/consumerinfo/energy_savers/ Replacing or Weatherizing Windows just three trees, properly placed around the house, can save an average household between $100 and $250 in heating and cooling energy costs annually. Deciduous trees planted on the south and on the west will help keep your house cool in the summer and allow sun to shine in the windows in the winter. Deflect winter winds by planting evergreen trees and shrubs on the north and west sides of your house; deflect summer winds by planting on the south and west sides of your house.

67. North Carolina Sustainable Energy Association What is sustainable energy? Rather, the loose family of sustainable energy technologies gains and loses members over time and according to perspective. http://www.ncsustainableenergy.org/about/sustainability.html

The most widely accepted definition of sustainability, based on the 1987 report of the World Commission on Environment and Development (the "Brundtland Commission," after its chairwoman Gro Harlem Brundtland), is development by which societies today meet their needs, without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs . Too often, people interpret this definition exclusively in biophysical terms, and thus concentrate on the conservation of physical resources, the protection of human health, the maintenance of stable ecosystems, and so on. We prefer a broader interpretation. Achieving sustainability entails balancing the environment, the economy and social equity. To endure on a sustained basis, a society needs fair access to good jobs and economic resources, and it must factor into its economic accounting the consumption and destruction of environmental resources-especially those that are irreplaceable. Sustainability balances the environment, the economy and social equity.

The Sustainable Future Just What Should We 'Sustain'? Delivered by Alan Schriesheim, Ph.D., Director Emeritus, Argonne National Laboratory at the The 25th Annual Illinois Energy Conference, Chicago, November 24, 1997 You asked me here today to talk about "the role of technology in energy and environmental planning." However, I think the topic should properly be "the role of environmentalism in technology and energy planning." During the next 25 minutes, I shall explain why. And I shall strive to be thoughtful, thought-provoking, and thorough. But, most of all, I shall strive to be ... "sustainable." Because in the United States these days, "sustainability" is not only a de facto requirement for energy sources, environmental legislation, and technology development, it also seems to be a requirement for conversations about those things. Not too long ago, an American research executive gave a speech on this topic in Taiwan. He spoke for about 30 minutes and he used the word "sustainable" 84 times. Or about once every 22 seconds. If "victory" in energy and environmental planning goes to he or she who can speak that word most often, then this gentleman must surely be regarded as a championship contender. A colleague who sometimes helps me in research undertook a reference search for several key words. He found almost one million key-word references for "sustainable" and "sustainability." Not surprisingly, many of those seemed to be Washington sources.

The purpose of our weatherization program is to increase the energy efficiency of dwellings owned and occupied by low-income persons, reduce their total residential energy expenditures, and improve their safety. Low-income persons who are particularly vulnerable include the elderly, the handicapped, and children. The work to be completed is based on a site-specific energy audit that includes blower door directed air leakage diagnostics, heating system safety and efficiency diagnostics, duct leakage diagnostics, and insulation needs. Priority service is given to dwellings with health and safety problems, owner-occupied dwellings, dwellings that contain elderly, disabled and/or children under six years of age and dwellings with the most potential for energy savings. This work is funded with federal dollars administered by the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD). DHCD contracts with community-based nonprofits (like CHPC) around the state to take applications, determine eligibility, provide services to standards set by DHCD and report these services to DHCD.

Energy for a Sustainable Future Many of us at UNH are familiar with the University's sustainability initiative. That initiative involves much more than just energy issues. For more information on the sustainability initiative contact the Office of Sustainability Programs in Room 206 Nesmith Hall (Email: sustainability.programs@unh.edu). One way to define sustainability is that our energy use 1) will not use natural resources faster than they can be naturally replenished, 2) will not create waste faster than it can be safely assimilated into a natural cycle, and 3) will allow for the distribution of energy resources in a fair and equitable manner. Three areas where we can most readily demonstrate sustainable energy practices are energy conserving behaviors, utilization of energy efficient technology, and selection of sustainable energy sources. Visit the UNH Office of Sustainability Programs website for information on their campus programs and activities. The Sustainability Building Representatives are a UNH campus group working on a variety of sustainability issues. Tools and information for sustainability at home, and at work:
