Gross Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions:
Performance year | Baseline year | |
Gross Scope 1 GHG emissions from stationary combustion | 2,079 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent | 1,928 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent |
Gross Scope 1 GHG emissions from other sources | 101.78 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent | 133 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent |
Gross Scope 2 GHG emissions from imported electricity | 2,071 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent | 4,833 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent |
Gross Scope 2 GHG emissions from imported thermal energy | 0 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent | 0 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent |
Total | 4,251.78 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent | 6,894 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent |
Figures needed to determine net carbon sinks:
Performance year | Baseline year | |
Third-party verified carbon offsets purchased | 0 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent | 0 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent |
Institution-catalyzed carbon offsets generated | 0 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent | 0 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent |
Carbon storage from on-site composting | 0 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent | 0 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent |
Carbon storage from non-additional sequestration | 742 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent | --- |
Carbon sold or transferred | 0 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent | 0 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent |
Net carbon sinks | 0 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent | 0 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent |
A brief description of the carbon sinks, including vendor, project source, verification program and contract timeframes (as applicable):
The college owns several nature preserves. The native forests on these preserves actively sequester carbon from the atmosphere. Pre-consumer food waste from the college dining hall is frequently composted in the campus Organic Garden.
Adjusted net Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions:
Performance year | Baseline year | |
Adjusted net GHG emissions | 4,251.78 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent | 6,894 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent |
Start and end dates of the performance year and baseline year (or three-year periods):
Performance year | Baseline year | |
Start date | July 1, 2017 | July 1, 2008 |
End date | June 30, 2018 | June 30, 2009 |
A brief description of when and why the GHG emissions baseline was adopted:
The baseline year adopted was 2008 because it is the year at which we started completing a periodic greenhouse gas inventories.
Figures needed to determine “Weighted Campus Users”:
Performance year | Baseline year | |
Number of students resident on-site | 493 | 494 |
Number of employees resident on-site | 2 | 5 |
Number of other individuals resident on-site | 5 | 0 |
Total full-time equivalent student enrollment | 671 | 541 |
Full-time equivalent of employees | 287 | 240 |
Full-time equivalent of students enrolled exclusively in distance education | 0 | 0 |
Weighted Campus Users | 847.25 | 710.50 |
Adjusted net Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions per weighted campus user:
Performance year | Baseline year | |
Adjusted net Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions per weighted campus user | 5.02 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent | 9.70 Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent |
Percentage reduction in adjusted net Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions per weighted campus user from baseline:
Gross floor area of building space, performance year:
Floor area of energy intensive building space, performance year:
Floor area | |
Laboratory space | 1,393.55 Square Metres |
Healthcare space | --- |
Other energy intensive space | 720.93 Square Metres |
EUI-adjusted floor area, performance year:
Adjusted net Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions per unit of EUI-adjusted floor area, performance year:
