City of San Diego, California's reported carbon emissions

The City of San Diego, California, part of the "US" region and operating in the "Public administration and defence services; compulsory social security services (75)" industry, has reported specific emissions data. For the year 2023, total emissions were approximately 495,000 kg CO2e. The prior year, 2022, also recorded total emissions of approximately 495,000 kg CO2e. Emissions data for 2021, 2020, 2019, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2013, and 2010 are not available in this dataset, although emission factors for electricity, natural gas, and wastewater were noted for these years. The city is committed to significant greenhouse gas (GHG) reductions. State-level legislation mandates a reduction of statewide anthropogenic GHG emissions to at least 85% below 1990 levels by 2045. Furthermore, a near-term target is in place to reduce California's statewide GHG emissions by 40% below 1990 levels by 2030. While specific City of San Diego reduction targets and achievements are not detailed in the provided data, these legislative commitments outline the broader climate goals influencing the region. The city's industry context as a public administration entity suggests that its emissions profile would typically encompass operational aspects of municipal services.
