Carbon accounting is the process of measuring a company’s direct and indirect greenhouse gas emissions, calculated as carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2e).
We define carbon accounting as the process of measuring a company’s direct and indirect greenhouse gas emissions and removals, calculated as carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2e).
However, carbon accounting differs from carbon footprinting; it’s the process of continuously scrutinising your emissions and embedding carbon into your company’s decisions.
Carbon accounting quantifies the impact of an organisation’s business activities – measuring its climate impact.
A corporate carbon footprint is the total amount of greenhouse gas emissions your company emits into the atmosphere.
Emitwise prepares greenhouse gas inventories consistent with “The Greenhouse Gas Protocol: A Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard”.
