Estimate high-level Scope 1 (Direct) and Scope 2 (Indirect) CO₂ emissions based on standard EPA conversion factors.

Total Emissions (Metric Tons CO₂e)

The Math

This calculator uses generalized US EPA emission factors to convert energy usage into Metric Tons of CO₂ equivalent (MTCO₂e).

Electricity: 0.85 lbs CO₂ / kWh
Natural Gas: 11.7 lbs CO₂ / Therm
Gasoline/Diesel Avg: 19.6 lbs CO₂ / Gallon
1 Metric Ton = 2,204.62 lbs
