STEWARDSHIP METHOD FOR MANAGING OZONE-DEPLETING SUBSTANCES

摘要

A stewardship system integrates the destruction of ozone depleting substances, such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFC), carbon credit generation, sale of carbon credits within the various carbon credit markets, and distribution of the profits to the contributing entities. A central processing entity mediates transactions between the different entities.
