Your carbon footprint is the amount of carbon dioxide, or greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, that your organization contributes to the environment. A long-term carbon management plan provides your organization with a documented strategy and roadmap that will help you prepare for the physical and economic risks of climate change.
Energy, waste and carbon management go hand-in-hand. As significant contributors to Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions, energy and waste are responsible for a significant amount of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere. By collecting and analyzing complete, accurate data on your organization’s energy and waste use, you can begin to better understand your carbon footprint. This data will inform your long-term planning as well as annual reporting and disclosure.
