Local and Regional Greenhouse Gas Emission Inventory
Greenhouse Gas Inventorying Effort
In partnership with the Regional Integration of Sustainability Efforts (RISE) Coalition, and with the generous contribution from Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Railway, NCTCOG was able to create the first North Central Texas Regional Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory. While doing this, cities in the North Central Texas 12-county Metropolitan Planning Area were invited to participate and build inventories utilizing the Local Governments for Sustainability (ICLEI), formally known as the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives, ClearPath software tool at no cost. Below are the participating cities who joined the NCTCOG cohort and worked to produce their own citywide greenhouse gas inventories with ICLEI and NCTCOG support.
