A carbon footprint is the output of a carbon accounting process. A high-quality carbon footprint represents the sum total of a company’s greenhouse gas emissions, including Scopes 1-3, and serves as the basis for the company’s emissions reductions goals (such as science-based or net zero targets) and progress. Regulatory frameworks in the US, EU, and elsewhere require many companies to disclose their carbon footprint annually, often in concert with financial disclosures.
Carbon accounting is the foundation for climate reporting, disclosure, targets, and reductions—which is why it’s so important to get right. Further, many companies, it’s now a requirement. Regulations in Europe and the US will soon require many companies to report emissions data, often with the same level of fidelity (and scrutiny) as financial disclosures. In addition, investors and consumers are calling for greater transparency on climate data, and a growing number of companies are requiring their suppliers and partners to disclose emissions data and climate action plans
