Code GPC equations in Python

[gretaOEF]

The goal of this project is to implement emission calculation methodologies provided by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol for Cities (GPC) using Python. The GPC offers various methodologies categorized by sectors and subsectors, enabling cities to calculate their emissions based on available data.

Project Steps:

Select a Sector:

• Choose a specific sector from the GPC that you want to focus on for emission calculations.

Implement Equations:

• Code the equations associated with the selected sector. Ensure comprehensive coverage of all equations within the chosen sector.

City Selection:

• Pick a city with the necessary data required for the selected sector's equations. This data will serve as the input for emission calculations.

Handling Default Values:

• Address scenarios where equations recommend default values. Define a mechanism to connect these default values to the equations appropriately.

Parameter Considerations:

• Be mindful of additional parameters that may be required for certain activity data within the equations (e.g., protein intake). Incorporate these parameters as needed.

Bottom-Up Approach:

• Utilize a bottom-up approach in implementing the equations. Start with the fundamental components and progressively build up to estimate emissions for the chosen city.
