    Torres Strait - Options to Reduce Regional Carbon Footprint January 2012 Prepared by: CAT Projects Version Author Reviewer Date 0.1 E Chessell Lyndon Frearson August 2011 1.0 E Chessell Andre Grant, November 2011 John Rainbird Final 3.0 E Chessell Lyndon Frearson Jan 30 2012 Andre Grant, John Rainbird Ekistica Pty Ltd, trading as CAT Projects ABN 74 126 787 853 © CAT Projects 2012 This document is and shall remain the property of CAT Projects. The document may only be used for the purposes for which it was prepared. Any unauthorised use of this document is expressly prohibited. Section 1: Executive Summary The Torres Strait Climate Change Strategy (TSCCS) developed by the Torres Strait Costal Management Committee in 2010 presents the urgency of climate change impacts for Torres Strait communities. Many communities are already threatened by the impact of increasing peak tides, and livelihoods in the region are particularly vulnerable to changes in marine ecosystems due to coral bleaching and warmer water temperatures, and increases in extreme heat and cyclone events. 1 The TSCCS takes a proactive risk management approach to these significant threats and recommends a local greenhouse mitigation program as part of a broad climate action plan. This report contributes to this effort by providing a high level assessment of the regions greenhouse footprint by sector, to inform mitigation planning and decision making, identifying potential avenues to pursue mitigation efforts, and providing an overview of renewable energy options for the region. CAT Projects, working in cooperation with the Centre for Appropriate Technology (CAT), has prepared this report for the TSRA to inform decision making.
