Within the Academic space, Energy represents 89% of the annual emissions, producing 307 MT eCO2 annually with 66% of the emissions resulting from equipment use within the labs. Consumable emissions accounted for only 5% of annual academic emissions, primarily driven by emissions generated from office supplies. Food and Waste, largely due to the degradation of paper and food waste, each represented only 3% of the annual emissions with approximately 12 and 11 MT eCO2 respectively. Emissions associated with Water, represented less than 1% of GHG emissions within the academic space. RKR

The Energy sector is the highest contributor to RKR emissions with 284 eCO2 or 68% of RKR annual emissions. This is largely due to the energy intensity of kitchen equipment use within RKR. As expected, emissions from food were a greater percentage as compared to the academic space. Emissions from food represented 23% of RKR emissions with approximately 98 MT eCO2. Waste and Consumables collectively represented only 8% of the emissions and Water only 1%.
