Customize the GHG Calculator
The GHG Calculator is designed for municipalities to integrate climate considerations into municipal decision-making processes across all departments. Customizing the tool enables municipal decision makers to accurately evaluate the greenhouse gas impacts of policies and projects in their locale, ensuring climate considerations can be incorporated into every municipal decision.
