GHGProof
GHGProof is an Open Source model designed to evaluate the impacts of land-use decisions on greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption at the community scale. It has been developed by Sustainability Solutions Group, a Canadian workers co-operative, and has been widely used in British Columbia since 2008, with regular revisions and updates from (SSG's GHGProof pages ). Reviews of GHGProof and comparison to other modelling platforms may be found in references.〔(Case Study by the Government of BC )〕〔(Comparison with other models )〕〔(Dalhousie University Thesis Project analysing GHGProof and another model )〕〔(Detailed comparison of GHG models by Government of BC )〕 == History ==
GHGProof was first conceived in a project designed to evaluate the impact of a land-use plan on Salt Spring Island in BC, commissioned by the (Islands Trust ).〔(The GHG Implications of Different Settlement Patterns on Salt Spring Island )〕 Following this project, SSG was awarded a research grant from CMHC and worked with the Fraser Valley Regional District to develop an open source model for wide distribution. GHGProof was piloted with the City of Abbotsford and the Town of Hope, and baseline GHG inventories were created for a workshop with all the FVRD municipalities in which they could develop scenarios. The Government of BC requires that all municipalities include GHG targets in their official community plans, creating an incentive for this type of modelling.〔(BC Government's Climate Change Policies )〕 An article in Municipal World describes the use of the model in the FVRD.〔(Municipal World Article: Addressing Climate Change )〕
