BASIC GREENHOUSE GAS (GHG) ACCOUNTING, MITIGATION, AUDIT AND REPORTING

INTRODUCTION FOR BASIC GREENHOUSE GAS (GHG) ACCOUNTING, MITIGATION, AUDIT AND REPORTING

Many organizations are starting to think about how to manage their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for a number of reasons: to minimize their impact on the planet, to prepare for regulation and address evolving disclosure requirements, to increase energy efficiency and/or to build their profile as an environmental leader. Building an inventory of your sources and emissions (eg., carbon footprint) is an essential first step to assessing risks, reducing emissions and tracking your performance.

This    course    aims    at    professionals    responsible    for measuring, reporting and managing carbon dioxide  and other    greenhouse    gas   (GHG)    emissions    for    their organization.  This training course will cover the basics of GHG accounting for organizations. 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. 

 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 with essential understanding of carbon accounting approaches and methodologies based on ISO14064 and the GHG Protocol: Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standards. These standards besides have formed the basis of many local and international schemes, they also provide tools for industries and governments in developing their programs to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
