Determination of Carbon Footprint: Düzce University Konuralp Campus
Abstract
Climate change, one of the most important problems of our age, is a problem that needs an urgent solution as soon as possible. Mathematical models of climate support this idea. With the results of mathematical models related to climate change, it is aimed to predict effects such as increase in the average surface temperature of the planet, rise in sea level, more frequent and intense natural disasters, decrease in water resources, and imbalances in ecosystems. This study was carried out with the aim to emphasize the possible effects of climate change with mathematical models and encouraging people to take action on this issue and to take appropriate measures to minimize the negative consequences. For this reason, this study was presented to calculate the carbon footprint of Düzce University Konuralp Campus with the IPCC methodology Tier1 approach. The amount of carbon footprint was found to be 4.781.841 tons of CO2. As a result of this analysis, the investment cost of solar energy usage has been calculated since the solar energy availability in the region is appropriate. This study was conducted to draw attention to sustainable campuses and to lead the transition from sustainable campuses to sustainable cities.
