footprint arising from energy consumption in Batman University. It is important
for universities to do acts toward control the greenhouse gas emission based on
energy consumption while performing activities. Therefore, there is need to
know the components of carbon footprint. Electric energy, natural gas energy,
and various oils as the energy consumption components in these institutions
were scrutinized. Petrol, diesel fuel, and fuel oil were utilized as types of
oil. It is seen that the component which considerably specifies the carbon
footprint is 3.161.238 ton CO <sub>2 </sub> value and electric energy. Natural
gas and fuel oil use contribute to carbon footprint at high ratios in winter
months especially arising from heating. 
361 ton CO <sub>2 </sub> based on natural gas use and 1.256.445 ton CO <sub>2 </sub>based on fuel oil use are other components which specify the carbon
footprint. As a result, the primary carbon footprint for Batman University was
determined by IPCC Methodology and Tier 1 approach; it is 3.162.855,445 ton CO <sub>2 </sub>
for 2017. </span> <span lang="de" style="font-size:12pt;line-height:125%;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;" xml:lang="de"> </span> </p> <p> </p> <div> <div> </div> </div>}, number={1}, publisher={Hibetullah KILIÇ}
