Abstract: The amount of CO2 produced by the daily activities of university students is estimated on the basis of statistical, questionnaire, and measurement data. The results reveal that a large proportion of CO2 emissions occurs during energy consumption, food preparation and transport, and that the CO2 emissions of dormitory residents are lower than those of students living in other situations. Practical methods for reducing student CO2 emissions are also examined.
