           It is clear that activities with the most opportunity to reduce emissions come from:
           e   Waste management services.
           e   Electricity consumed at Council buildings & facilities (incl. Holiday Parks).
           e   Public lighting (both Council and Energex owned).

           Figure 4: Noosa Council’s GHG emissions x scope

           The largest source of emissions under Scope 1 is from waste landfill. Improved knowledge and
           data capture is required to accurately calculate the emissions generating Scope 3 activities.
           KEY ACTION 1:

           Council will continue to improve its knowledge and data collection. It will measure emissions using
           credible measurement tools.

           KEY ACTION 2:

           GHG emissions will be measured annually. Progress towards the defined zero net emissions
           target will be included in Council’s annual reporting.
