This course will provide knowledge and understanding of carbon neutrality and how to use ISO 14068-1:2023 in your organization to achieve carbon neutrality, on the pathway to Net Zero.
It is now widely accepted that human activity is contributing significantly to negative impacts on our planet. Scientists and climate experts advise that we are running out of time to resolve the issues. The 2021 report1 from the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) stated that the 1.5°C target will be exceeded by 2040 unless emissions are slashed, and has been described as a ‘code red for humanity’. Fixing the climate change problem and securing a stable, prosperous future for the planet is a key driving force behind climate action.
The leading organizations have recognized the existential threat presented by the climate crisis, developing policies and strategies to help reduce emissions within their operations and value chain. As climate change has become recognized as a threat to the planet and human existence, there is an increasing realization and focus on a need to achieve net zero.
Carbon neutrality, which is a state of balance between carbon released into the atmosphere and the amount of carbon removed from it, is an important milestone on that pathway to net zero.
This 1-day carbon neutrality training course will help you:
- Know and understand the key terms, definitions, and process of becoming carbon-neutral
- Understand the relationship between carbon neutrality and associated requirements, including accurate quantification of GHG emissions and removals, reporting, and claiming neutrality, on the journey to net zero
- Plan the activities required to achieve carbon neutrality
- Identify when carbon offsetting is appropriate and how carbon credits work
- Appreciate the importance of verifying/validating declarations of carbon neutrality
