Your carbon footprint comprises of your scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions as defined by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and ISO 14064 Standard.

The GHG protocol includes multiple standards used by companies, cities and countries to calculate emission outputs for products and value chains. ISO 14064 establishes the standards recognised to be in compliance with the best practices outlined in the GHG Protocol.

Direct Emitions
- Company Owned Vechicles
- Phisical / Chemical Processing
- Stationary Combustion
- Fugitive Emmisions
Scope 2

Indirect Emitions
- Company Owned Vechicles
- Phisical / Chemical Processing
- Stationary Combustion
- Fugitive Emmisions
Scope 3

- Company Owned Vechicles
- Phisical / Chemical Processing
- Stationary Combustion
- Fugitive Emmisions

GHG sources, sinks, emissions and removals
Explanation of procedures, methodologies and boundaries
Data and information systems associated with an organisations quantification of GHG emissions and removals
