9 MTCDE/1, GSF Two Ways to Compare Emissions to Peers MTCDE/Student FTE 25 Gross Emissions per 1, GSF 12 Gross Emissions per Student FTE Benchmarking by GSF is useful for emissions that are affected by space characteristics, such as age, technical complexity, and systems efficiency. Benchmarking by Student FTE is useful for emissions that are affected by individual habits, such as commuting and waste production/recycling. 48

21 Scope 1 Concluding Comments Scope 2 Scope 3 The infrastructure project has produced a drastic drop in Scope 1 emissions focus must now turn to smaller and consistent reductions over time. Continue reducing emissions by switching to less intense refrigerants and improving fleet fuel efficiency. Consider implementing anti-idling policies and combining work order requests to reduce travel Identify a plan for electric reductions and implement efficiency measures. Focus on implementing LED lighting across campus. Educate commuters about less carbon intense commuting options. Review options to condense class scheduling to increase more carpooling opportunities. Continue to improve recycling program, and consider composting as an additional option to divert waste. Electric reductions will also decrease emissions from T&D losses. 6
