## How to Calculate Greenhouse Gas Equivalents

Different greenhouse gases have different warming potentials. Converting to CO2-equivalent (CO2e) allows comparison.

### Global Warming Potentials (GWP-100)

- **CO2**: 1x (baseline)
- **Methane (CH4)**: 28x
- **Nitrous Oxide (N2O)**: 265x

### Formula

**Total CO2e = CO2 + (CH4 * 28) + (N2O * 265)**

हल किया गया उदाहरण

A facility emits 100 tons CO2, 5 tons CH4, and 1 ton N2O per year.

  1. CO2 contribution: 100 metric tons CO2e
  2. Methane: 5 * 28 = 140 metric tons CO2e
  3. Nitrous oxide: 1 * 265 = 265 metric tons CO2e
  4. Total: 100 + 140 + 265 = 505 metric tons CO2e
  5. Non-CO2 share: (140 + 265) / 505 * 100 = 80.2%
