After this FIBS Practice training, you will
- have an in-depth understanding of the greenhouse gas protocol, related standards, and the iterative nature of greenhouse gas accounting
- the ability to identify and categorize your organization’s relevant emission sources
- have an increased understanding of how to prioritize in terms of data collection and set the right level of granularity (detail) of your current and future inventories
Calculating your carbon footprint has been common practice for many years, and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, the most prominently used framework, exists for over 20 years.
However, the need for action has increased with a more imminent and tangible climate crisis. With public scrutiny and new frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), the requirements on detail, completeness, and accuracy have increased significantly.
The road to an actionable carbon footprint can be daunting – it should have the right level of detail but still, be manageable and not consume endless resources. For a sustainability manager or an organization, judging what methods are acceptable and in line with peers and best practices can be hard.
In this training for persons working with greenhouse gas accounting, South Pole experts will guide you through some of the key hurdles and challenges with a correct scope 3 assessment. The interactive session will combine exchange with real cases and best practice examples.
