プロジェクト概要
Global Emissionairy is committed to pioneering sustainable solutions for a greener future. Their mission is to revolutionize the road construction industry by reducing carbon emissions through the substitution of carbon-intensive materials with eco-friendly alternatives. Through innovation and collaboration, they strive to mitigate environmental impact, promote carbon neutrality, and inspire global change towards a cleaner, more sustainable planet.
The Recycling Roadways for Carbon Emission Reductions - Midstate Reclamation and Trucking Project (herein “project”) supports Midstate Reclamation and Trucking in replacing hot mix asphalt (HMA) with foam stabilized base (FSB) and/or emulsion asphalt in pavement projects across the United States. Prior to implementing project methods, pavement contractors often default to using energy-intensive mining, hauling, and high-temperature material manufacturing practices associated with HMA. These industry standard activities unnecessarily destroy habitats, release carbon dioxide (CO₂), and release volatile organic compounds (VOC). This project reduces greenhouse gas (GHG) emitting activities throughout the pavement application lifecycle. The project reduces dependence on the mining of virgin aggregate, reduces transportation of raw materials to mix plants, eliminates high-temperature asphalt manufacturing, and, in the case of in-place pavement recycling, eliminates mix-plant to job-site transportation. The project is conducted under VCS methodology VM0039, “Methodology for Use of Foam Stabilized Base and Emulsion Asphalt Mixtures in Pavement Application” and compares carbon emissions between traditional and sustainable designs with similar structural properties. Project instances will be added under a single Project Description as allowed by Verra. Other similar Project Descriptions may also be developed with other pavement contractors.
