Has the institution conducted a GHG emissions inventory within the previous three years that includes all Scope 1 and 2 emissions? :
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:
Fossil fuels consumed through stationary combustion are multiplied by an emission factor to quantify scope 1 and 2 into GHG emissions
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?:
A brief description of the GHG inventory verification process:
A third party vendor was contracted to conduct and third-party verify our Emissions Inventory in compliance with Ontario Regulation (O.Reg) 390/18 Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Quantification, Reporting & Verification
Documentation to support the GHG inventory verification process:
