Where −0.44 comes from
open-climate.ai adds up the gases MEE publishes, each weighted by its warming potential.
Reporting this kilogram under the GHG Protocol
Scope 1 −0.44
Gas that escapes from equipment you run is a direct emission, so it is your Scope 1.
The factor, standardised
Every factor on open-climate.ai answers the same questions in the same words, whatever the publisher. Open any ⓘ for the definition.

- BoundaryProcess emissionsThe direct non-combustion emissions of an industrial, agricultural or waste process itself, per unit of its activity: the gas its chemistry or biology releases (CO2 from calcining carbonates or from a reductant, CH4 from enteric fermentation, a flooded paddy or stored manure, N2O from nitrogen applied to soil or from nitric and adipic acid).

- Process emissions
- GWP methodWhich IPCC assessment report's warming potentials convert each gas to CO₂e, and over how many years the warming is counted (GWP100: 100 years). Learn more
- None: the value counts CO₂ alone
- CO₂ weighs 1 in every IPCC report, so no GWP applies
- CO₂e basisWhich carbon the CO₂e counts. Fossil only leaves out biogenic methane, land-use change and biogenic CO₂; excl. biogenic CO₂ counts biogenic methane but not the other two; net total counts every pool, net of removals. The same activity on two bases is two different numbers. Learn more

What this number covers
What MEE counts in the figure for one kilogram, phase by phase.
Your record

= −0.44
Outside this boundary
- Power the unit uses
- Fugitive releases
MEE does not count any of this in the figure for one kilogram.
Gases
Basis: Net totalEvery carbon pool, biogenic and land use included, net of removals, so it can sit below the fossil figure, or even below zero. Learn moreFossilBio CH₄Land useBio CO₂full carbon balance
- REMOVALS−0.44
The CO₂e counts fossil, biogenic and land-use carbon together.
From MEE's record to a comparable factor
