Port Houston recently announced its goal to be carbon neutral in the next 30 years. Port officials plan to achieve a net-zero greenhouse gas footprint by 2050 by upgrading technology, improving infrastructure and equipment and utilizing alternative fuels and clean energy sources. "Our goal is ambitious, but we must be practical in how we achieve it," Port Houston Executive Director Roger Guenther said. "The choices we make will be good for the environment and also good for the economy and the millions of people who rely on the Houston Ship Channel and Port Houston for their jobs. As with most ambitious goals, we cannot do it alone. Collaboration and partnership will be keys to our success." In addition to 72 ongoing initiatives, Port Houston recently launched a Sus-tainability Action Plan that includes 27 opportunities to lead, partner or support sustainability initiatives. |
