You can only improve what you measure
Many companies around the world are assessing their carbon footprints for various reasons including the growth of carbon tax legislation, public disclosure, integrated reporting, or just the realization that it’s good for business. Others use carbon footprints to reduce operational costs. Businesses that measure their carbon footprints are better able to understand, quantify, and manage climate change-related impacts, risks, and opportunities.
The collective goal of measuring CFP is to reduce carbon emissions, strengthen disclosure, and improve governance on climate change issues. There are several internationally recognized CFP reporting standards that can be followed to assess and disclose CFP.
Carbon Footprint assessment measures the total set of greenhouse gases that are emitted at different stages of a product’s life cycle.
Discussing the Purpose of CFP Reporting
CFP is a goal-oriented study, and it is crucial to set this goal early in the reporting process. In this stage, we work with you to answer the question “Why you are Reporting CFP?”. In answering this question, organizations have several answers such as:
- Demonstrating company compliance.
- Quantifying and identifying emission “Hot Spots” in the organization’s supply chain and managing them.
- Identifying specific company actions aimed at improving GHG performance.
- LCFP is considered as an assurance tool by environmentally concerned stakeholders.
- LCFP computation can be used in marketing the organization.
- Gaining an important competitive edge in the expanding carbon emissions industry.
- LCFP quantification, monitoring, and reporting.
