  1. Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory & Recommendations for Achieving Carbon Neutrality Chemicals 2010 Faculty Coordinator: Dr. Kate Hale Wilson Faculty Support: Dr. Jim Boulterand Dr. Kim Pierson Student Researchers: Carbon Neutral Team, 2010 Student Presenters: Jason Hansen, Laura Headrick, StephMabrey,& AndiKrunnfusz

  2. ACUPCC • Presidents Climate Commitment • Achieve climate neutrality (date TBD) • Initiate tangible actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions • Publish the climate action plan, emissions inventory, and periodic progress reports

  3. What is eCO2? • Equivalent carbon dioxide emissions • Standard measurement for global warming potential • Carbon Dioxide • Methane • Nitrous Oxide • Halocarbons • Sulfur Hexafluoride

  4. 2010 Total eCO2 Emissions Total Emissions: 38,870 metric tons eCO2 • Electricity produces 12,707 MT eCO2

  5. eCO2 Production by Sources 2008 & 2010 (MT)

  6. Chemical Subgroups • Refrigerants • Greenhouse Gases (GHGs) used for classroom and research purposes • Disposal of hazardous waste • Acetylene and Propylene used for vehicle maintenance • Acetylene used by the Chemistry Department and the Art Department

  7. Chemical Emissions

  8. Chemical Recommendations In order to maintain accurate information and inventory efficiency, records regarding both the purchase and use of chemicals and disposal of hazardous waste should be kept.

  9. Additional Information • For more detailed information, please view the 2010 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory Report & Recommendations for Achieving Carbon Neutrality in full at:http://www.uwec.edu/Sustainability/plans/index.htm
