# Understanding and Reducing Ghg Emissions – Focus On Scope 1 and 2 Emission Reduction through Building Design and Construction - Institution: IIT Roorkee - Department: Architecture - Teacher: Prof. Avlokita Agrawal - Level: Undergraduate - Language: English - Subjects: Art, architecture and design - Source: [NPTEL](https://nptel.ac.in/courses/124107165) - Licence: [CC BY-NC-SA](https://nptel.ac.in/faq) (Non-commercial use only.) - Syllabus: [at the source](https://nptel.ac.in/courses/124107165) - Who can watch: Tweens profiles and older (sources give no ratings; placed by Invisible Network from the source's own words) This course introduces the students about Greenhouse Gas Protocols. The GHG protocol classifies emissions into three categories namely Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3. Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions are direct emissions and can be impacted through easily achievable targets. One of the means to achieve Scope 1 & 2 emission reductions is shifting to Sustainable and Low Carbon Architecture. This course details out the understanding of GHG protocol and also the means to achieve the reductions under Scope 1 and 2 through Sustainable Building Design and Construction.
