ITR

The Implied Temperature Rise (ITR) – also called global warming potential – is an intuitive and future-oriented climate metric that indicates the climate impact of an asset (e.g. a building) based on degrees Celsius (°C) of global warming. The ITR answers the question: How many degrees would the climate warm up if the entire world had the same emission intensity as the building under consideration? Compared to other climate metrics, the ITR is intuitively understandable and allows to compare different asset classes.
