Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
GHG emissions are one of the metrics for the Finance & Business Environmental Stewardship Key Initiative. In 2006, a 17.5% reduction by 2012 goal was established. The reduction strategy focuses primarily on energy, with initiatives in conservation, efficiency, green building design and procurement of renewable power. Programs in transportation, waste management and purchasing as well as comprehensive sustainability awareness efforts contribute to the strategy.
