Awareness of your own operations is a fundamental first step in any carbon management strategy. Carbon footprint calculations provide an estimation of the total emissions associated with your organisation's operations. The carbon footprint measure is widely recognised and understood, therefore making it a useful reporting or marketing tool.
Calculation of a carbon footprint also highlights opportunities for reduction of emissions and improvement in performance. If desired, following reduction efforts, the remaining carbon can be offset through a recognised scheme to allow operations to become carbon neutral.
