A Carbon Footprint analysis measures the total greenhouse gas emissions generated directly and indirectly by a person, organization, event or product.
Carbon footprint (CF) – also called a carbon profile – is the overall amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (e.g. methane, nitrous oxide, etc.) associated with a product, its supply-chain, and sometimes including emissions from its use and end-of-life recovery and disposal.
- Carbon footprint quantification analysis and reduction are key to addressing climate change. With this information, companies are empowered to enhance energy efficiency, mitigate carbon emissions by means of green energy, and compensate for remaining GHG emissions by investing in carbon offsets, with a final goal of being carbon neutral.
- Product sustainability software allows companies to capture all the GHG emissions of a product in a systematic and transparent way. Primary data specific to your product can then be incorporated into your analyses and combined with secondary data on GHG emissions.
