Abstract

this research was conducted with the objective to develop a Greenhouse Gas (GHG) calculator and Graphical User Interface (GUI) for an organization, company or person to calculate and analyze GHG emission from their business or personal activities. The GHGCal is developed using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 using visual basic programming language. This GHG calculator consists of two emission scopes: 1) Scope 1, a direct emission and 2) Scope 2, an indirect emission. The GHGCal application is able to calculate Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Methane (CH4) and Nitrous Oxide (N2O) emission from activities of an organization. Controlling and measuring the GHG is crucial in order to reduce greenhouse effects that bring harm to our earth. Early awareness, knowledge and understanding about greenhouse effect and emission level must be made known to industries so that they can find solutions to control and reduce the emission. This GHGCal software acts as a medium to determine the GHG emission of an organization, event, product or a person.
