Greenhouse Gas Accounting: Mapping your Carbon Footprint

Provided by: MEP Courses

For a variety of reasons, many companies are starting to voluntarily track their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to establish their carbon footprint. However, most of these companies struggle with determining what emissions should be included in the GHG inventory and how to determine their GHG emissions in metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalence. This workshop will help clear up the confusions and uncertainties concerning the establishment of a carbon footprint and provide the structure and traits of a well-established voluntary GHG accounting program.
