30Identify...
- ...is a software package that helps its users
answer two key questions
- 1) To what extent can improved industrial
technologies and practices reduce greenhouse-gas
emissions in developing countries ?
- 2) What other impacts, such as costs, would
result from the introduction of these
technologies?
