The reduction potential of the Drawdown solutions for the industry and business sector in Gelderland lies between 0.077 and 1.2 Mton CO₂-eq in 2030. The range reflects diverging scenarios for closing landfill sites and for the extent to which recycling and composting keep waste out of landfill. Sequestration potential does not apply to this sector and stands at 0.
The lower bound belongs to the most conservative assumptions, in which hardly any landfill sites close; the upper bound to the most far-reaching, circular scenarios in which all organic waste is kept out of landfill. That wide spread shows how strongly the outcome depends on policy choices around waste, recycling and landfill capacity.
