4. Implement the Composite Action Item Plans with Cause-effect Relation or Multiplier Effect.
(1)Counsel the certified bronze-level Zhushan community, Zhusha Village on promoting low carbon and sustainable travel. Based on the local culture characteristics, a complete low-carbon guided route has been designed as a tour package; a total of 2,000 copies of folding brochures on low carbon and sustainable travel map have been made and distributed at Kinmen Airport, Shuitou Dock and all the sightseeing spots.

(3)Collect and analyze the statuses of greenhouse gases emissions during 2012~2014 in Kinmen County. In 2014, the greenhouse gas emissions were 367,258 tons of CO2e and per capita emissions were 2.88 tons of CO2e per year. Among the research, the emissions from the Energy - Residential and Commercial Sectors accounted for over 50% was the primary target for emission reduction.
(4)Register the modified administrative area inventory data from 2012~2014 on the “Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Carbon Disclosure of Cities Service Platform System for Cities” to provide the Central Government with a new guidance for inspecting the 2012~2014 greenhouse gas emissions inventory results for all county departments.
6. Recommendations
(1)The counselling work in low carbon communities for next year could focus more on assisting those communities that have met the entry requirements or obtained bronze-level certifications in upgrading to the bronze / silver level, and counsel the communities with potential for the silver / bronze level to gain the silver- / bronze-level certifications to achieve the performance goals for 2017 of the Environmental Protection Administration, and the goal of silver level for Kinmen County, and continuously reproduce and promote experiences in the implementation of the low-carbon and sustainable action items for the current year to other communities.
