Summary, etc EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The study aimed to estimate the carbon footprint of faculty, students and non-teaching personnel of state university in the province of rizal in terms of the categories defined by greenhouse gas protocol such as scope 1 which includes the fuel consumption and refrigerant, scope 2 that covers electricity and scope 3 consists of paper used, solid waste generated, water used and transportation of the population generated. The study was conducted in university of rizal system-morong campus, morong, rizal during the school year 2017-2018. Survey research and descriptive method were used in order to determine the estimated total carbon footprint in the campus. Primary data were given to respondents such as faculty, students and non-teaching personnel to estimate the greenhouse gas emissions of the campus. The sources of information on greenhouse gas, carbon footprint, climate change impact and adaptation tells that the most common sources of information on greenhouse gas, carbon footprint, climate change impact and adaptation of faculty members, non-teaching personnel and students are the family, the social media and the television. There are numerous technologies and practices conducted in the campus to decrease greenhouse gas emission and the most common practice in all respondents are conserving of energy like turning off the lights, computer, and air condition unit when not needed and conserving water. The faculty members, non-teaching personnel and students have high level awareness on greenhouse gases, its threats, impacts and how to lessen its emission however, the respondents have average level of awareness on the significance of carbon footprint. Results shows that the level of self-assessment of faculty members, non-teaching personnel and students of the campus in terms of access to greenhouse gas information providers and training programs, and climate change adaptation and capacity building are similar in terms of access to information trainings and programs which is less extensive and willingness to adopt new technology or method which is moderately intensive. With the faculty members having more information on ghg thus, they are more capable to evaluate programs and activities related to ghg and capacity to implement said activities. Based from the respondents there are numerous seminars and trainings attended by the respondents from the faculty members, non-teaching personnel an students related to greenhouse gas and climate change personnel and students related to greenhouse gas and climate change related topics in which they perceived as fair and moderately relevant to improve their ability in lowering greenhouse gas emission and adapting to climate change. The respondents are willing to attend intensive trainings and seminars to strengthen their climate adaption and capacity building. Based from the results of the study is concluded that the campus is contributing a great amount to carbon emissions with electricity used as the biggest source. The faculty members, non-teaching personnel and students have different available sources of information on greenhouse gas carbon footprint, climate change impact and adaptation and there are available technologies and practices that were conducted in the campus to decrease greenhouse gas emission. However, except for the faculty, the respondents have average level of awareness on the importance of carbon footprint and less extensive capability on climate change adaptation. There were seminars and trainings attended by faculty members, non-teaching personnel and students associated to greenhouse gas and climate change and these seminars and trainings are not enough for the respondents to respond to climate change adaptation thus an intensive trainings and seminars are requested by the respondents.
