Part 1. Greenhouse gas emissions inventory
Yes
A copy of the most recent GHG emissions inventory:
A brief description of the methodology and/or tool used to complete the GHG emissions inventory:
Energy use data from the official NYC energy database (EC3) was used to calculate John Jay's Scope 2 emissions and Scope 1 emissions for natural gas. GHG Coefficients were provided by NYC Mayor's Office of Sustainability. 8.887 × 10-3 metric tons CO2/gallon of gasoline was used, from https://www.epa.gov/energy/greenhouse-gas-equivalencies-calculator. Data from https://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/findacar.shtml was used for vehicle fuel miles.
Has the GHG emissions inventory been validated internally by personnel who are independent of the GHG accounting and reporting process and/or verified by an independent, external third party?:
Yes
A brief description of the GHG inventory verification process:
The inventory was reviewed and approved by Hira Mohammad, Sustainable CUNY.
The Scope 2 data is based on annual data, electricity and steam purchased from ConEd. The April 1-March 30 time frame for vehicle mileage coincides with the NY Executive Order 4 report.
The Scope 2 data is based on annual data, electricity and steam purchased from ConEd. The April 1-March 30 time frame for vehicle mileage coincides with the NY Executive Order 4 report.

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
99.5% of John Jay's emissions are Scope 2. Steam is used for heating. The only natural gas used is for cooking in the Student Dining Hall. Electricity, steam, and gas are purchased by Con Edison.
