Calculator Methodology
Iri peji rinopa pfupiso yenzira inoshandiswa mu SeaGrass Kura Blue Carbon Offset Calculator. Tiri kukwenenzvera nzira yedu nguva dzose kuti tive nechokwadi chekuti mamodheru edu anoratidza yakanakisa uye yazvino sainzi uye kuti mhedzisiro yacho ndeyechokwadi sezvinobvira. Nepo maverengero ekuzvidira eblue carbon offsets anogona kuchinja sezvo modhi ichinatswa, huwandu hwekabhoni offset mukutenga kwako huchavharwa kubva pazuva rekutenga.
Estimation of Emissions
Nekufungidzira kwekubuda kweCO2, takashanda kuti tiwane chiyero pakati pekururama, kuoma, uye nyore kushandisa.
Mumba Emissions
Utsi hunobva mudzimba hunosiyana ne geography/mamiriro ekunze, saizi yemba, rudzi rwemafuta ekudziisa, kunobva magetsi, nezvimwe zvakawanda. Emissions inoverengwa pachishandiswa simba rekushandisa data kubva kuUS Department of Energy (DOE) Residential Energy Consumption Survey (RECS). Kushandiswa kwesimba repamba nekushandiswa kwekupedzisira kunofungidzirwa zvichienderana nematanho matatu: Nzvimbo yeImba, Rudzi rweKumba, Kupisa Mafuta. Ichishandisa RECS microdata, data rekushandisa simba rakaverengerwa dzimba munzvimbo shanu dzemamiriro ekunze eUS. Kushandiswa kwesimba kweimwe mhando yemba munzvimbo yakapihwa yemamiriro ekunze, pamwe chete nemafuta ekudziya akataurwa, akashandurwa kuita kuburitswa kweCO2 uchishandisa emission zvinhu zvinotsanangurwa pamusoro-iyo EPA zvinhu zvekupisa mafuta uye eGrid zvinhu zvekushandisa magetsi.
Nyama Diet Emissions
Greenhouse gasi kubuda kwakabatana nekudya marudzi matatu enyama — nyama yemombe, yenguruve, nehuku — inosanganisirwa muSeaGrass Kukura Calculator. Kusiyana nemamwe masosi ekubudisa, izvi zvinobuda zvinobva pahupenyu huzere hwekugadzirwa kwenyama, kusanganisira kugadzirwa kwechikafu, chekufambisa, uye kusimudza nekugadziriswa kwezvipfuyo. Zvidzidzo zvinoverengeka zvakaitwa pahupenyu-kutenderera kwegreenhouse gasi kuburitswa kwakabatana nekushandiswa kwechikafu. Sezvo zvimwe zvezvidzidzo izvi zvinotarisa pamhando imwe chete yechigadzirwa chechikafu kana chimwe, uye nzira yacho inowanzosiyana pakati pezvidzidzo, chidzidzo chimwe chete chichishandisa nzira inowirirana yekumusoro-pasi kuverenga kuburitsa kubva munyama inopedzwa muUS yakashandiswa karukureta.
Office Emissions
Utsi hunobva kumahofisi hunoverengwa nenzira yakafanana neyedzimba. Idzi data rinobva kuUS Department of Energy's Commerce Building Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS). Iyo yazvino dhata rekushandisa simba rakaitwa kuti riwanikwe (semuna 2015) neDOE rinoshandiswa pakuverenga izvi zvinobuda.
Land-Based Transportation Emissions
Emissions kubva mukushandiswa kwezvifambiso zvevoruzhinji inowanzopihwa maererano nekuwanda kwehutsi pamufambi-mamaira inofambwa. Iyo SeaGrass Kura Calculator inoshandisa emission zvinhu zvakapihwa neUS EPA nevamwe.
Air Travel Emissions
The SeaGrass Grow modhi inofungidzira 0.24 tons CO2 pa 1,000 air miles. Kuburitsa CO2 kubva mukufamba nendege kune simba guru rinokonzera shanduko yemamiriro ekunze nekuti inoburitswa yakananga mumhepo yekumusoro.
Emissions kubva kuHotera Kugara
Tsvagiridzo ichangoburwa pamusoro pekuenderera mberi muindasitiri yekugamuchira vaenzi yakakonzera kuongororwa kwekushandiswa kwesimba uye kuburitswa kwemhando dzakasiyana dzemahotera nenzvimbo dzekutandarira. Kuburitsa kwacho kunosanganisira kuburitswa kwakananga kubva muhotera pachayo, pamwe nekuburitswa kwemagetsi anoshandiswa nehotera kana nzvimbo yekutandarira.
Vehicle Emissions
Avhareji yenhamba yekubuda nekirasi yemotokari yakavakirwa paUS EPA fungidziro. Rimwe galoni repeturu rinoburitsa makirogiramu 19.4 eCO2 ukuwo garoni redhiziri rinoburitsa 22.2 mapaundi.
Kufungidzira kweCarbon Offsets
Kuverenga kwedu kweblue carbon offsets - huwandu hwehuswa hwegungwa kana hwakaenzana hunofanirwa kudzoserwa uye / kana kuchengetedzwa kuti hubvise huwandu hwakapihwa hweCO2 - inotemerwa neiyo ecological modhi inoumbwa nezvikamu zvina zvikuru:
Yakananga Carbon Sequestration Benefits:
Iyo kabhoni sequestration yaizowanda paeka imwe yemubhedha wakadzorerwa uswa hwegungwa pamusoro penguva yakatarwa/nguva yeupenyu hwepurojekiti. Isu tinoshandisa avhareji yehuwandu hwezvinyorwa zvehuwandu hwekukura kwehuswa hwegungwa uye kuenzanisa mibhedha yakadzoreredzwa yehuswa hwegungwa kune isina kumera pasi, mamiriro ezvingaitika mukusavapo kwekudzorerwa. Nepo kukuvadzwa kudiki pamibhedha yeuswa hwegungwa kunogona kuporesa mukati isingasviki gore, kukuvara kwakanyanya kunogona kutora makumi emakore kuti aporese kana kusazombopora zvizere.
Carbon Sequestration Benefits kubva kuErosion Prevention:
Iyo kabhoni sequestration yaizowanda nekuda kwekudzivirira kwekukukurwa kuri kuramba kuchiitika kubva pakuvapo kwevanga reprop kana kumwe kukanganisa kwepasi. Muenzaniso wedu unotora kuenderera mberi gore negore mukusavapo kwekudzorerwa pachiyero chinobva pane zvinyorwa zvinyorwa.
Carbon Sequestration Benefits kubva Kudziviriro yeKubvisazve:
Iyo kabhoni sequestration yaizowanda nekuda kwekudzivirira kudzoreredza kweimwe nzvimbo. Muenzaniso wedu unofunga nezvekuti kunze kwekudzorerwa, tichave tiri kushanda panguva imwe chete kudzivirira kudzoreredzwa kwenzvimbo dzatinodzorera kuburikidza nezviratidzo, mapurogiramu ezvidzidzo uye mamwe maitiro.
Carbon Sequestration Benefits kubva Kudzivirirwa Kwekukuvadzwa Kwenzvimbo Dzisina Kukanganiswa/Mhandara:
Iyo kabhoni sequestration yaizowanda nekuda kwekudzivirira mavanga eimwe nzvimbo isina kukanganiswa/mhandara. Sezvaratidzwa pamusoro, tichave tichishanda kudzivirira mavanga mune ramangwana renzvimbo dzatakadzoreredza. Mukuwedzera, tichave tichishanda kudzivirira kukanganisa kunzvimbo dzisina kukanganiswa / mhandara zvakare.
Fungidziro yakakosha mumuenzaniso wedu ndeyekuti kudzoreredza kwedu uye kuedza kwekudzivirira kunoiswa kwenguva yakareba - makumi emakore akawanda - kuitira kuti ive nechokwadi chekuti uswa hwegungwa hunoramba hwakasimba uye kabhoni inotorwa kwenguva yakareba.
