The ICLEI USA Inventory Data Playbook walks you through the key steps to complete a GHG inventory. However, users must collect their own data to input into the Playbook itself. This entails requesting data from data providers.

The Data Request Forms can be used as a template to request data. It is encouraged to send these forms directly to data providers for their completion. The forms align with ClearPath 2.0 and the Inventory Data Playbook.

What data is covered by the Data Request Forms? The forms cover all data points in the US Community Protocol and some data points for the Global Protocol for Cities. It is up to the users' discretion to determine the scope of their inventory, what data points to collect, and therefore which forms to utilize.

See the Inventory Data Playbook

The data request forms cover...

Natural gas and electricity emissions

Emissions from municipal solid waste sent to landfill, incineration and/or composting

Freight rail and water emissions

...and more!
