Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
While Virginia Tech strives to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions, a 13.8% growth in campus size relative to the 2005 baseline year combined with the decision to maximize coal-generated steam production for budgetary purposes have resulted in negative progress for this credit relative to 2005.
