  1. Urban MiningMaking Sustainability SustainableAchieving Carbon Neutrality in the Global Manufacturing Industry Dr. Subodh Das , CEO & Founder, Phinix, LLC, Lexington, Kentucky, USA www.phinix.net

  2. Historical Trends in Manufacturing Industry Safety – 1950s (Zero Lost Time Accident) Industry Standard Now Environmental – 1970s (Zero Discharge) Industry Standard Now Quality – 1980s (Zero Defects) Industry Standard Now Carbon Neutrality – 2000s (Zero Carbon Impact) New Industry Paradigm

  3. Copenhagen, Denmark Taxi - Example of Carbon Management Less Idling Better Fuel Mix Less Dead Weight Less “Scenic” Routes Better Driving Habits Local Offsets

  4. What is Carbon Neutrality? • No International Definition • My Definition: “Cradle-to-Cradle” Paradigm ∑ CO2eq = ZERO + Emitted during production. - Green energy uses. - Energy efficiency. KWH - “In-Use” energy saving products. - Recycling, Reduce, Reuse - Urban Mining

  5. Urban Mining WHAT: Recovering Valuable Metal from Landfills WHY: Best “Ore”, Lowest CO2eq Option, $80 Billion HOW: Map Out Landfills, Find Most Economically Lucrative Location, Core Samples ISSUES: Legal, Ownership, Not Done Before NEXT : Develop a Business Plan , Find “Seed Fund”
