BASIC GREENHOUSE GAS (GHG) ACCOUNTING, MITIGATION, AUDIT AND REPORTING TRAINING
Course Introduction
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.
Who Should Attend
Safety committees who are responsible for identifying GHG sources, prepared GHG calculations, determine mitigation, assess GHG audit processes.
