| Description: |
Electricity and natural gas consumption in our homes, businesses, industries and
public institutions (including the City government) results in over 342,000 tons
CO2e per year emitted into the atmosphere – about 53% of Berkeley’s total
GHG emissions. The energy we consume in our homes contributes about half of
the total emissions from building energy use
while energy consumption in non-residential
buildings contributes the other half. Natural
gas consumption, mostly for space and water
heating, is the largest source of emissions
related to building energy use. |
