In this guide, we will show you 5 common ways to visually display such a pathway. Seeing these different illustrations can help you to shape how you would like to present your own organisation’s pathway towards a low carbon future.  \nIntroduction  \nWhat are emission reduction pathways?  \nEmission reduction pathways allow for the easy communication of  \n• where your organisation is currently at in terms of greenhouse emissions (or energy consumption)  \n• where you can be through the implementation of reduction measures that are feasible and cost-effective overtime  \n• where you would be in the absence of any measures to reduce emissions  \nPathways usually start with your selected baseline year and end at some point in the future, typically at 2030, or when agreed or proposed targets are to be met.  \nWhat do emission reduction pathways cover?  \nBoundary  \nYour emissions boundary will typically consider three things:  \n• The level of an organisation or region you want to assess in terms of emissions reduction. This could be a single site, an asset class ([e.g. community](e.g. community) buildings), a division in an organisation, a whole organisation, a town or community, and up to State and National levels.  \n• The emissions and energy sources that you want to evaluate. For example, electricity, natural gas, petrol, diesel, refrigerants, waste, wastewater and so on.","cbCaiv65H087aB9w","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiv65H087aB9w","pdf",1876555,16,"English","# Introduction\n## What are emission reduction pathways?\n## What do emission reduction pathways cover?\n## Boundary\n## Units of measure\n# The need for a graphical representation of emissions pathways\n# 5 ways to graphically represent emission reduction pathways\n## Example #1 - Line chart\n## Example #2 - Waterfall chart\n## Example #3 - Area graph\n## Example #4 - Column graph\n## Example #5 - Marginal abatement cost (MAC) curve\n# Need help?\n# Please share","[{\"question\":\"What is an emission reduction pathway and what does it communicate?\",\"answer\":\"An emission reduction pathway communicates where an organisation stands on current greenhouse emissions, where it can go through feasible and cost-effective reduction measures, and where it would be without any measures.
