The release of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere as a result of human activities leads to serious issues such as global warming and climate change. In order to measure and comprehend these harmful effects, the concept of carbon footprint has emerged. Defined by the Kyoto Protocol, this concept is based on calculating the unit carbon dioxide (CO2) equivalents of different activities' greenhouse gas impacts. Through these calculations, the production amount of carbon and its potential harm to the environment can be determined. Globally, various efforts are underway to reduce carbon footprint. These endeavors are rooted in fundamental principles such as raising awareness among individuals, adopting sustainable consumption habits, and prioritizing renewable energy sources. In the scope of this study, carbon footprint calculations for the year 2023 of a university located in the capital of Turkey were conducted using specific equations. The calculation considered various parameters, including total electricity consumption, energy consumption for heating purposes, and daily transportation data of staff and students. According to the results obtained, the highest carbon emission values stem from electricity consumption. The findings of the study include recommendations for energy conservation measures and the promotion of renewable energy production to reduce carbon dioxide emissions at the university.
