Greenhouse Gas Mitigation Potential
November 2005
EPA 430-R-05-006
This technical report examines different future scenarios for sequestering carbon and reducing emissions of methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) from U.S. forestry and agriculture. Net greenhouse gas mitigation estimates in response to carbon price assumptions are presented for the period 2010 - 2110 (with a focus on 2015, 2025 and 2055), using a model of the U.S. forestry and agricultural sectors called FASOMGHG.
