Make Commitment Milestone 1 Inventory Emissions Milestone 2 Set Target/Goal Milestone 3 Establish Local Action Plan Milestone 5 Monitor/Evaluate Progress Milestone 4 Implement Local Action Plan The Five Milestones for Climate Mitigation

An assessment of energy use & associated emissions Assess baseline performance Compare alternative scenarios Illustrate opportunities Set attainable goals Prioritize projects Demonstrate progress toward emission reduction goals Obtain quantification of emissions profile The Importance of Quantification Greenhouse Gas Inventory You cant effectively reduce what you dont measure.

Details best-in-class practices for conducting an inventory of GHG emissions from local government operations Comprehensive and allows for standardized inventorying and reporting practices Community Protocol being developed now Local Government Operations Protocol

Report on a calendar year basis Base year should be reliable, reflective, and complete. Consider: Regional consistency Traditional year Completeness – need all data Always take complete notes!!! Identify things within your Operational Control - owning an operation, facility or source, or having the ability to make changes in the facilities you lease. Inventory Basics

Community Inventory Residential Commercial Industrial Transportation Waste Other Process and Fugitive Emissions Government Op. Inventory Buildings Vehicle Fleet Streetlight and Traffic Signals Water/Sewer/Wastewater Ports/Airports Solid Waste Employee Commute Mobile Equipment Other Process and Fugitive Emissions Sectors Analyzed

GHG Emissions = Activity Data X Emission Factor ICLEIs software provides the emissions factors (with a few exceptions) Your job is to find the activity data…aka energy use Emissions Calculation/Estimation Methodology

Categories of Data: ICLEI Electricity Natural Gas Fuel Oil / Propane / Stationary Diesel Gasoline & Diesel Compressed Natural Gas or Biofuel Waste Annual Mileage, Vehicle Type, Model Year Population Served by Wastewater Treatment Facility Refrigerants leaked from vehicles, air conditioners, refrigeration units, heating, & fire suppressant equip. Vehicle Miles Traveled Other Process and Fugitive Emissions Energy Data Needed
