Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Emission factors and global warming potential data from Environment Canada www.ec.gc.ca/ges-ghg/. Note: Prior to the baseline year of 2005, McGill had already significantly reduced its Greenhouse Gas emissions per capita. As such, though the University now has an extremely low absolute volume of GHG emissions per capita, it was not able to achieve substantial additional reductions required for this credit.
