Beyond VMT in Land Use
In One Project:
VMT related GHG reductions: 46%
Building energy related GHG reductions: 54% (i.e. greater than
the VMT related emissions reductions).

…and this did not include further benefits from embodied GHG
in the improved water and waste systems (often better in infill
locations) or the protected bio-mass sequestered in
undeveloped alternative sites such as prime ag land and
watersheds.
