2015 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory

Back to Sustainability News

This year marks º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½â€™s seventh consecutive greenhouse gas inventory report. º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½â€™s gross campus carbon emissions in Fiscal Year 2015 is 14,562 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MTeCO2).  That represents a 2,253 ton reduction from our 2009 baseline, a 13 percent reduction.  Likewise, we have reduced our net campus carbon footprint (scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions plus forest sequestration and carbon offsets) by 7,583 MTeCO2, representing a 49 percent reduction.  Since signing the American College and University Presidents’ Climate Commitment (ACUPCC) in 2009, rebranded as Second Nature’s Carbon Commitment, º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½ has implemented many changes on and off campus to achieve these reductions, moving closer toward our goal of carbon neutrality by 2019.
