Basics of Organizational GHG Accounting: Online Certified Course in Washington, D.C.
Course Overview
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. Each learner will be able to download a personal copy of ISO 14064: Part 1 as part of this course.
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.
Learners may also choose to take an optional section that covers reporting to The Climate Registry and provides practical experience using The Registry’s General Reporting Protocol.
