Peter Maddock's article 'Net Zero Benalla' in BSFG's November newsletter references protocols and tools which can assist councils to carry out a community wide emissions inventory and highlights work being done both locally and globally by other cities and local governments.
These include Cities Power Partnership (Benalla Council is a Member), ICLEI Internatioal Council of Local Governments for Sustainability, Global Covenant Of Mayors for Climate and Energy, C40 Cities, and the GHG Protocol Standard for Cities, the GPC which provides guidance on a Council Operations emissions inventory.
The Snapshot Climate Tool, developed by Beyond Zero Emissions with local government specialists Ironbark Sustainability, provides participating councils in Australia with an online emissions profile which is sufficiently accurate to provide them with an insight into community emissions.
Peter also references Ironbark Sustainability’s website article on Science Derived Targets for Australian Councils and the 2021 Australian Local Government Climate Review which provides a comprehensive analysis of climate change actions, barriers and opportunities facing councils and communities.
