Sustainability is a huge topic and it is greatly linked to Climate change. Climate change is felt all over the world and public and private companies and investors ought to perform their due diligence so that our future generations can still meet their own needs. One of the first steps is to be aware of our own carbon footprint. Only when we are aware, then we are able to measure, monitor and take actions to reduce or remove carbon emissions.
Carbon accounting is an interesting topic to begin with. This course is intended to allow beginners to grasp concepts of ISO 14064-1 (Greenhouse gas or carbon accounting) easily. It introduces important terms that are required to calculate GHG or carbon emissions and can serve as a refresher for other audience too. It introduces terms such as emission factors, activity data and Global Warming Potential (GWP).
A foundational, easy to understand and bite-sized manner is the focus of this course! This course sets the ground work or foundation for beginners to take on more complex topics as they progress in sustainability domain, impact investing, sustainable finance or verification and validation work.
