Main content start

Definition:

This category includes emissions from employees traveling between their homes and their worksites. At Stanford, the Employee Commuting category is based on emissions from employees commuting to campus both by car and using alternative forms of transit.

Methodology:

Stanford parking permit data and data from the annual employee and student commute survey are used to calculate commuting mileage. Then, vehicle-specific emissions factors published by the EPA are applied.
