INTRODUCTION FOR CARBON FOOTPRINT–NET ZERO EMISSIONS TRAINING

According to the latest IPCC report, the global GHG emissions need to peak by 2025 and reduced by 43% by 2030 to avoid the worst effect of climate change. We are in a critical window to decarbonize and it needs a profound and significant shift across our entire economy. As sustainability issues take precedence in a rapidly changing world, the imperative to become green and sustainable brings about challenges and opportunities. Getting to Carbon Neutral and Net Zero Program is a part of series of Sustainability & Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG).

This    course    provided with the fundamental building blocks for identifying and deploying solutions that reduce, manage and mitigate carbon emissions and eventually be able to develop a Net Zero Carbon Roadmap for your organization. This    course    aims    at    professionals    responsible    for measuring, reporting and managing carbon dioxide  and other    greenhouse    gas    (GHG)    emissions    for    their organization.   This   course   will   provide   you   the   latest information   regarding   GHG   emissions   accounting   and management and focuses on areas such as: background to climate change,  developing  a  carbon  accounting  system, managing  GHG  emissions  and  options  for  reducing  GHG emissions.  You will  also  be  equipped  to  communicate effectively  the  imperative  of  reducing  the GHG  emissions with colleagues.

This training is designed to provide participants to be able to define net zero, understand its scientific underpinnings, and account for the interdependence between ecological, social, and economic systems. Gain an understanding of the changes to our energy systems as part of a low- carbon transition. Identify possible solutions for transitions to net zero, appreciating the interplay of policy, markets, behaviors and technology to enact them.
