What is the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol?
Summary
The Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol) is a globally acknowledged standard for measuring and managing greenhouse gas emissions. The GHG Protocol was established in 1990 in response to demand for a consistent framework for greenhouse gas reporting. Today, the GHG Protocol collaborates with governments, industry associations, NGOs, corporations and other organisations to provide the world’s most widely used emission calculation guidelines.
Nations and enterprises that have committed to the Paris Agreement are obligated to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. To do so, they are required to track, disclose, and mitigate its emissions by adhering to established criteria like those outlined in the GHG Protocol. The GHG protocol has played a pivotal role in promoting decarbonisation across operations in the public and private sectors through providing a unified framework for emissions management. Organisations looking to source carbon accounting software must ensure they source a decarbonisation platform that aligns with the principles of the GHG Protocol
