  1. Campus Carbon Calculator Overview Claire Roby Carbon Accounting Coordinator

  2. Planning Challenges • What are our major emissions sources? • Where will our emissions be in 20 years – and where do we want them to be? • In what ways to does our current infrastructure present constraints, or opportunities? • What are the most cost effective measures to reduce our emissions? • How can we track our progress?

  3. Why Complete a GHG Inventory? Management Tool Managing the energy costs along with the environmental impact Pedagogical Opportunity Incorporate the learning into a “living laboratory” Outreach Vehicle Strategically engage a community of individuals Civic Document Communicate your institutional commitment

  4. Boundaries: What will we measure? • Temporal • Spatial • Scope • Scope 1: onsite and direct control • Scope 2: offsite and direct control • Scope 3: less control

  11. + Cost ($) - Emissions Reduction (%) Solutions Module • Analyzes emissions reduction measures • Cost • Size of reduction • Prioritizes reduction measures • Ideal measure is low cost, large reduction

  12. Steps in the Solutions Module • Come up with a series of projects • Enter a few pieces of data • Check the assumptions • The calculator will evaluate • Present this information
