What is Carbon Accounting and Why Does it Affect Business?

Companies are seeing increased requirements to report their carbon emissions from a governmental level, as well as increased pressure from consumers to publish this information. We are undergoing a shift in the market where environmental sustainability is becoming a priority. An essential tool for an organisation is the ability to account for the carbon emissions produced as a result of their business activities. This can be quantified by a third-party consultant, but the skillset can also be performed internally, with adequate training. If your organisation hopes to build this competency, a partnership with Astutis and Tunley Environmental to identify key employees and train them on the step-by-step process of carbon accounting and reporting might be the answer to developing this skillset.
