What is a Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory?
An accounting of the amounts and sources of emissions of greenhouse gases.
The inventory provides a benchmark for our efforts to reduce GHG emissions.
The completion of the inventory is part of the
Climate Action Plan

Clean Air-Cool Planet Campus Carbon Calculator
A massive spreadsheet to input the amounts and sources of greenhouse gas emissions both on campus and in activities associated with AUS.
This tool was developed at the University of New Hampshire and adopted by the ACUPCC as the primary carbon calculator for institutions developing Climate Action Plans.
Used by over 1200 institutions nationwide.

GHG Emissions at AUS
Baseline indicators: operating budget, energy budget, square-footage of the building and population of full time students, part time students, faculty, and staff.
Resources used by the people in the building including: annual tons of solid waste, purchased kilowatt hours of electricity, gallons of wastewater, and paper purchased.
Transportation methods of the students, faculty, and staff to and from AUS.
