…when the machines have stopped and the doors have closed, what did you leave behind? What did you take, and what didn’t you take? The interaction with the physical environment around you, that’s your footprint.
Materiality, availability, accuracy, relevance. Those are, in a nutshell the challenges with recording and reporting of data on your footprint.

A framework to help you report on your carbon footprint
The Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol) is a widely recognized set of guidelines for measuring and reporting greenhouse gas emissions. This framework is often used as a globally recognizes way of standardizing the reporting of emissions.
Reporting according to the Greenhouse Gas Protocol comes with many advantages:
- Credibility: The GHG Protocol enhances transparency and credibility.
- Global Recognition: The protocol is internationally recognized, aiding organizations operating across diverse jurisdictions.
- Comprehensive Coverage: GHG Protocol addresses all emission scopes, providing a holistic view of an organization’s carbon footprint.
- Risk Management: Using the protocol helps identify and manage potential risks associated with climate change and emissions.
- Benchmarking: Organizations can benchmark performance against industry peers, fostering improvement.
- Regulatory Compliance: GHG Protocol assists in aligning with regulatory requirements (like the CSRD) for emissions reporting.
