Policymakers worldwide have set goals and incentives to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. An increasing number of organisations of all sizes and sectors are placing a focus on Carbon Accounting, Carbon Management, and Carbon Reporting. Understand the business case for carbon management and how companies can prepare themselves as the global business community moves toward a low carbon economy. The course introduces climate change, carbon footprinting (GHG Accounting), carbon management and energy management, carbon reporting, and carbon reduction. Gain an overview of different methodologies (e.g. the Greenhouse Gas Protocol) to identify, quantify, account, and report GHG emissions and plan actions to reduce these. The course materials are based on the WRI/WBCSD GHG Protocol Corporate Standard while referring to the ISO 14064: Part 1 international standard for GHG inventories. The course is suitable for anyone wishing to learn about climate risk and carbon management and ways to measure, monitor, report, and reduce their contribution to it. For example, a client says he wants his company to be “carbon neutral” or to reach “net-zero” and you are asked to help them understand their carbon footprint. This course will enable you to intelligently address the issues necessary to assess this organisation’s GHG emissions
