Inventory Summary
The inventory looks at Pittsburg at three levels:
Total emissions include industrial emissions, regional transportation emissions, and the local community's emissions.
Local community emissions include transportation on local roads, residential and commercial energy use, and waste generated by the community.
Municipal operations emissions this include emissions from activities of the City of Pittsburg, the local government. This includes the fleet, building energy use, streetlight electricity, waste from City and public trash cans, and City staff commutes.
The inventory report focuses mainly on what the City and community of Pittsburg can change: the Local community emissions, and the municipal operations emissions.
Next Steps
The Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory is the first step in the City's process to meet energy, waste, and water use reduction regulations required by the state of California through adoption of a Sustainability Plan (also known as a Climate Action Plan). After the GHG Inventory, the process toward a Sustainability Plan includes development of climate reduction measures, implementation of monitoring tools, and CEQA review. Of course the Pittsburg community and relevant stakeholders are encouraged to participate in the entire process towards an adopted Sustainability Plan. Stay tuned for updates on public outreach efforts, community meetings, as well as opportunities for input through the City's General Plan Update (Engage Pittsburg), as these projects will mutually benefit and inform each other.
