Carbon Footprinting
Over the past few years the emergence of mandatory carbon reporting legislation around the world has been adopted at a rapid rate. Carbon regulations and climate change legislation schemes have evolved in a similar fashion to other environmental legislation in that every country has their own definitions of responsible parties, scope of obligated responsibilities and emission reporting / carbon credit allocation processes.
Whether you are reporting to a mandatory system, such as the CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme in the United Kingdom (UK) or a voluntary initiative, such as the Carbon Disclosure Project, or to your investors through 10K reports to the United States (US) Security and Exchange Commission (SEC), calculating your carbon footprint presents a host of data management and reporting challenges.
