TURNERS FALLS -- Some citizens on the 19 th The century mill village in the Connecticut River Celebrates the workers starting to dismantle the closed coal A power plant was opened this year. First, they removed the towering boiler. In June, chimneys burned thousands of tons of heat. Capture the gas into the air. Last month, the workers put five The story steel skeleton, leaving only one concrete silo, is a reminder of the local icon of this global warming. But demolition is not a victory in the fight against man-made climate change. Almost every piece of 2,600 The Ton plant will be shipped to Guatemala for reconstruction, built by girder, to power a textile mill that sells trousers, shirts and sportswear to the United States. It may also Last and continue to pollute for 50 years. From 4- Truck to 40 tons Tons of boilers, US vehicles and equipment are looking for a second life in developing countries --- Delaying meaningful reductions in greenhouse gas emissions through inefficient use of energy or direct emissions of carbon dioxide. A 1950s-era paper- The machine produced by Adams Curtis Paper Mill runs in Egypt. A 1992-kilometer school bus from Little Heroes Island in northern Vermont is driving along the road of Costa rica. A rock- Crusher for making talcum powder in West Windsor, Vt. It was demolished and reassembled in Colombia. \"This is obviously not what we want to happen,\" said Armond Cohen, executive director of Boston . \" Headquartered in the Clean Air Task Force of the national communications team. \"It is disturbing that we will put the remnants of our industry -- Technology instead of helping these places with cleaner options. \"In the United States, when a factory is closed or the school bus fleet is retired, its components usually enter the international market. Through online auctions and a series of middlemen, these vehicles and machines are sold and transported around the world, often to countries that cannot afford cleaner technology. There, used equipment can have a second action that lasts longer than the first one. International trade in retired equipment and vehicles, estimated by a German research team in 2003 at $150 billion per year, was rarely discussed as scientists called for immediate measures to avoid the most serious consequences of global warming. However, as New Englanders trade in sport utility vehicles for hybrid cars and move toward more climate -- Friendly technology, the export of old equipment represents a major loophole in the world\'s expanding efforts to block gas emissions that capture solar heat. Often, technologies that are considered obsolete in the United States have reduced some types of pollution compared to those that have been replaced in developing countries. But these devices still produce more greenhouse gases than new technologies or alternative energy sources.
