| description | Climate change is a real threat to humanity; its effects on society, the economy, and the environment are undeniable. It is predicted that the global temperature increases from human-made greenhouse gases (GHGs) will continue. The increase in GHG emissions will result in more climate extremes and widespread damaging effects across the planet. The effects that scientists predicted would occur in the future are observed now, such as sea level rise, droughts, and wildfires. However, the intensity of these effects depends on the amounts of GHGs emitted.
The Institute of National Planning (INP) started to act through its first Carbon Footprint report, which will be a base year for future reports. This report shows the Carbon Footprint estimates for INP located in Nasr City, Cairo, Egypt. The reporting period is between July 1st 2021 till June 30th, 2022. Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions were calculated using the standards and guidelines of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standards, and met the requirements of ISO 14064-1:2018.
As INP is committed to transparency when it comes to reporting its emissions, the current report covers 4 essential greenhouse gases quantified during the calculation process of INP's greenhouse gas inventory. These GHGs are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH), nitrous oxide (NO), and hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). Other GHGs were excluded due to their negligible contribution to the total GHG emissions. Emissions for each GHG are reported in metric tons of CO, equivalent emissions (CO2e).
The report concluded with recommendations in terms of
(1) improving GHG inventory completeness and occurrence; and
(2) decreasing the carbon footprint of INP.
The GHG report will work as a comprehensive guide for managing and mitigating GHG emissions within INP building. |
