Boulder Community-Wide Greenhouse Gas Emissions Summary Report
The City of Boulder has released its 2023 Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Inventory, highlighting a 7% decrease in community-wide emissions from 2022 and a 24% reduction since 2018. This milestone reflects Boulder’s steady progress toward its climate goals of a 70% reduction from 2018 levels by 2030 and achieving net-zero emissions by 2035.
Boulder's annual inventory helps measure the impact of local and regional actions on the climate crisis and serves as a tool in understanding the sources and trends of emissions, enabling the city to measure and refine its climate policies.
The City focuses on driving for systemic changes through policy advocacy at the regional, state, and federal level. Boulder also supports local action through voluntary and regulatory strategies to enhance community resilience and build replicable models that can be scaled regionally and nationally to drive market transformation.
