ISO 14064-1 Greenhouse Gases
Organizational carbon footprint verification
More countries and businesses are pledging to stop climate change by reducing GHG emissions to achieve net zero by 2050.
To accomplish this, your organization must measure and report its carbon footprint. ISO 14064-1 carbon assessment verification can help you to understand your current situation and ways to improve.
What is ISO 14064-1?
The international standard specifies organization-level principles and requirements for quantifying and reporting GHG emissions and removals.
ISO 14064-1 requirements cover the design, development, management, reporting, and verification of an organization’s GHG inventory.
The ISO 14064 series is GHG program neutral. If a GHG program applies, that program’s requirements are additional to those of the ISO 14064 series.
What is carbon footprint verification?
To calculate your carbon footprint, you must collect data on emissions caused by your organization’s activities, products, and services.
Once collected, we can independently verify its accuracy and your carbon footprint. This will help you to understand the level of emissions you need to reduce and/or offset to become carbon neutral.
Carbon footprint verification (CFV) is essential to providing credibility and reassuring stakeholders that your carbon footprint is accurate, absolute and compliant with major GHG reporting standards.
Why measure your carbon footprint?
Measuring your carbon footprint enables you to:
– Manage carbon risk exposure and identify improvement areas
– Prepare for future GHG legislation
– Increase efficiency and decrease costs through reduced energy consumption
– Enhance credibility by demonstrating environmental responsibility
– Engage and encourage employees to get involved in reduction efforts
