Carbon Footprint Calculation
What is Carbon Footprint?
A carbon footprint is the total greenhouse gases (GHG) emission in the atmosphere associated with all the activities of an individual or other entity, like products, services, events, or organizations. Global warming caused due to the concentration of (GHG) in the atmosphere.
The carbon footprint of a product or service includes all direct and indirect emissions produced throughout its life cycle, from the extraction of the primary material, manufacturing, distribution, the stage of use and disposal.
A carbon footprint measurement is the first step towards a robust environmental strategy.
Carbon footprint is calculated by summing the emissions from every stage, like material extraction, production, manufacturing, use, and end-of-life of a product or service’s lifetime.
Carbon reduction or mitigation strategies assist in reducing and stabilizing the levels of heat-trapping greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, resulting in a sustainable environment.
Measuring our carbon footprint is essential to identify the sources that produce CO2 emissions and take measures to reduce them.
What is the Product’s Carbon Footprint?
The PCF sums up the total greenhouse gas emissions generated by a product over the different stages of its life cycle.
GHG Protocol is a global carbon footprint measurement and reporting standard. It standardizes the measurement, management, and reporting of Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions generated. GHG Protocol establishes comprehensive global standardized frameworks to measure and manage greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from private and public sector operations, value chains and mitigation actions. GHG Protocol convenes governance bodies that guide the development of its accounting and reporting standards.
Why is it necessary to perform a Carbon Footprint Calculation?
The Paris Agreement, adopted within the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC) in December 2015, commits the participation of all countries to limit global temperature rise, adapt to changes already occurring, and regularly increase efforts over the period to mitigate them.
India, a signatory to the Paris Agreement that aims to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius compared to pre-industrial levels, has made an ambitious pledge to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2070.
Individuals, companies and governments have to participate in the fight against global warming and implement measures to achieve the objectives set out in Paris. Many organizations and companies are pursuing carbon footprint projects to estimate their contributions to global climate change and analyze their carbon footprints to pursue the most cost-effective strategies for carbon mitigation.
Why Greenex
- Greenex's conscious and continual efforts toward sustainable development are also manifest in different enactments. We have completed many projects in carbon footprint for various sectors, including IT companies and mobile industries.
- Greenex offers a range of services to help you measure and manage your supply chain emissions by recommending carbon sequestration and reduction strategies that sustainably reduce your carbon impact.
- By following the ISO method and GHG protocols for calculating and mitigating carbon footprints, we assist you in identifying, evaluating, and calculating the direct and indirect carbon emissions of your product, process, or service.
Our Services
• Assist decision-makers in understanding how to lessen a company’s, services, or product’s influence on climate change.
• Identify and quantify the emissions and areas of its reductions.
• Reduce emissions which ultimately results in cost reduction.
• To raise public awareness of global warming issues and provides information to consumers.
Individuals and companies, therefore, have to measure their carbon footprint and take the necessary steps to reduce their emissions and contribute to global carbon neutrality in the long term. We are here to assist you in achieving the target of mitigation and reduce the impact.
