Carbon Footprint

Carbon Footprint

Utilize ENVRMC to establish your carbon footprint for goods or services in a professional and economical manner. We have the expertise to assist you to comprehend the life cycle GHG consequences, locate supply chain bottlenecks, choose solutions for ongoing improvement, and meet the demands of stakeholders and customers. The carbon footprint of your product can be calculated in accordance with the World Resource Institute (WRI) GHG Protocol, PAS 2050, or ISO/TS 14067.

Eligibility

Organizations of all sizes and sorts, in any area, can use product carbon footprints to evaluate the effects of your products and services on climate change.

Accounting for GHGs Throughout the Whole Life Cycle

The life cycle of your product or service is used to evaluate the amounts of greenhouse gases. Assessing a product’s carbon footprint entails looking at emissions from all sources, including extraction and processing of raw materials, production, transportation and distribution, usage, and end-of-life.

Methods for Calculating Carbon Footprint

To calculate your carbon footprint, we use the PAS 2050, WRI/WBCSD GHG Protocol, or ISO/TS 14067 accounting methodologies.

  • WRI – To understand GHG emissions, governments and industry leaders use the WRI GHG Protocol, a global accounting instrument. Two requirements that are centred on life cycle GHG emissions for products and supply chains are included in the GHG Protocol
  • PAS 2050 – The British Standards Institute (BSI) published PAS 2050 in 2008 as the first carbon footprint standard for products in the world. Meeting PAS 2050 will help future adherence to ISO/TS 14067.
  • ISO/TS 14067 – ISO just released ISO/TS 14067 “Carbon footprints of Products,” which addresses the quantification and communication needs of GHG emissions linked to goods and services.

Depending on the data gathered, the impacts covered, and the calculating techniques employed, the levels of impact documented by carbon footprint approaches vary.

Labels for Carbon Footprint

Companies who want to inform their stakeholders and customers about their performance can also use carbon footprint labelling. Different carbon accounting techniques have created various labels for carbon footprints. Businesses who want to use a carbon label must have a third party certify their product assessment.
