transportation and commercial sectors were the next largest emitters, accounting for <br />approximately 31.6 and 18.0 percent of the total community emissions, respectively. <br /> <br />All of the residential emissions come from the consumption of natural gas usage at residences <br />within the University City boundaries and from the consumption of electricity that is generated <br />(by AmerenUE) outside of University City, but is used within city limits. The majority of the <br />community’s transportation emissions are the result of gasoline consumption in privately-owned <br />vehicles traveling on local roads and interstate I-170. <br /> <br />The transportation sector was the largest energy user; using approximately 2,280,223 MMBtu’s <br />in 2005. The Residential sector was the second largest energy user; using approximately <br />2,163,383 MMBtu’s in 2005. <br /> <br />Please refer to the Community Emissions Inventory on page 14, for more information. <br /> <br />Table 1: Summary Report of Community GHG Emissions by Sector, 2005 <br />Sector <br />CO₂ <br />(metric <br />tons) <br />N₂O <br />(kg) <br />CH₄ <br />(kg) <br />CO₂e <br />(metric <br />tons) <br />CO₂e <br />(%) <br />Energy <br />(MMBtu) <br />Residential 234,1012,6969,444235,13644.8 2,163,383 <br />Commercial 93,9761,3112,51294,43518.0 640,540 <br />Industrial 5,78974785,8141.1 45,694 <br />Transportation 162,43810,1708,144165,76231.6 2,280,223 <br />Wastei 00794,64813,2163.2 N/Aii <br />Other 6,4533006,4531.2 N/Aii <br />Total 502,75714,252814,826514,363100.0 5,129,840 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />2010-2011 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory, City of University City, MO 7 <br /> <br />
