Chattanooga’s Greenhouse Gas Inventory
green|spaces commissioned an updated Greenhouse Gas Inventory for Chattanooga, Tennessee to help us understand how far we’ve come since green|spaces was founded in 2007 and where we need to focus our efforts moving forward.
Why a GreenHouse Gas Inventory Report?
The goal of the city of Chattanooga community wide inventory is to estimate the GHG emissions associated with the activities of the people who live, work, learn, travel, visit, and recreate within the city’s geographical boundaries during three study years, 2008, 2013, and 2018. These inventories must be transparent and able to be replicated, updated, and compared with future assessments Chattanooga and assessments for peer cities. Measuring the energy aspects of human activities and the associated GHG emissions offers a unique way to compare the effectiveness of various energy and sustainability best management practices.
