Many indicators of success will be qualitative and can be measured through surveys, social media metrics, and interviews. Quantitative metrics items such as greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, energy and water usage can be measured using data obtained from sub-meters and monthly utility bills. Audits, such as our annual waste audit, will be used to measure our waste reduction and diversion rate.
