Dr. Denise Konan, to present at Renewable Energy and Island Sustainability (REIS) Seminar Series.
Hawaii has committed to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. This research presentation uses detailed data on Hawaii’s energy infrastructure and economic activities to determine the carbon intensity of Hawaii industries. New results are also presented on the role that visitor expenditures play in Hawaii’s GHG emission profile, relative to residential activities.
