Thank you for downloading the Small Town Carbon Calculator (©2009, Clean Air-Cool Planet). By using this software, including any third party software made available in conjunction with this software ("Small Town Carbon Calculator"), you agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions (the "Terms and Conditions").

NON-COMMERCIAL USE ONLY

The Small Town Carbon Calculator is made available to you and your municipality or committee for non-commercial use only. This means that you may use it at work or at home, to calculate your municipality’s greenhouse gas inventory. But you first need to obtain Clean Air-Cool Planet (“CA-CP”)'s permission if you want to sell the Small Town Carbon Calculator or any information, services, or software associated with or derived from it, or if you want to modify, copy (except as provided below), license, or create derivative works from the Small Town Carbon Calculator. In that case, please send an e-mail to stocc@cleanair-coolplanet.org.

The Small Town Carbon Calculator is designed to help municipal staff, town planners, local energy committees, and town administrators document and understand the municipality's greenhouse gas footprint.  The Calculator can help a town in taking the first step toward a comprehensive Climate Action or Climate Neutrality Plan. 

When presenting the results of your municipal greenhouse gas inventory, whether in written reports or spoken presentations, please credit the "Clean Air-Cool Planet Small Town Carbon Calculator" as a tool you used to complete this task.

Many municipalities want to share the results of the inventory with their constituents and the general public once it's completed. Whether or not you are making your inventory public, download and use of the Calculator implies willingness to share results of the inventory with CA-CP, only for purposes of aggregating U.S. municipal inventory results. Results are expected to be shared upon completion.  CA-CP will keep these results completely confidential unless express written consent is given to the contrary.

You may make copies of the Small Town Carbon Calculator and distribute such copies to others within your organization provided that any such recipient has had an opportunity to review and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If others within your organization do not have this opportunity to review and agree and you would still like to distribute copies to them, you may do so provided that you have the legal right to bind your organization (and others within your organization) to these Terms and Conditions. If you do not have this right and the recipients do not have an opportunity to review and agree to these Terms and Conditions, please do not distribute the Small Town Carbon Calculator to them. If you have any questions regarding the terms of distribution, please send an e-mail to stocc@cleanair-coolplanet.org.
