Carbon Accounting – also known as a Company Carbon Footprint or a Corporate
GHG Assessment – is the process companies use to measure, track, and report the
total carbon and other greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions they generate.
It helps companies understand the impact its business has on the planet – and how
to reduce their carbon footprint.
Different frameworks exist to standardise emissions reporting - including ISO 14064,
the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol.
