Noosa Shire community emissions
Community emissions have been estimated in accordance with the Global Protocol for
community scale greenhouse gas emission inventories2. The GPC Protocol is designed to
promote best practice greenhouse gas accounting and reporting. The breakdown of Noosa
Shire emissions is shown in Figure 6 below.
Emissions from electricity consumption from the grid account for 58% of the total emissions,
whilst transport emissions make up 33% and waste comprises 9% of total emissions.
Council will regularly update this profile, however it should be noted that the actual quantum
of emissions may change as more accurate and granular data becomes available on a
community wide basis. Updated community emission profiles will be available on Council’s
website.
