Climate Change & Carbon Calculator

Overview The fact that human activities are contributing to global warming is no longer considered debatable and the threat of irreversible damage depends on how governments, businesses, and individuals throughout the world respond to the challenge in the next 10 years. State Goal
The State of California has set a goal to reduce emissions to 1990 levels by 2020, and to further reduce emissions 80 % below 1990 levels by 2050. Morgan Hill has included these goals in the Environmental Agenda. The graph on the right indicates where emissions levels would have to be in order for Morgan Hill to meet the State’s goal (pink line). The blue indicates carbon emissions if no actions were taken (business as usual scenario) with continued population and commercial growth.
