Corporate Carbon Footprint and Climate Change
Record levels of greenhouse gases around the world demonstrate the urgent need for action to tackle climate change. Organizations must take the lead in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and increase sustainability efforts. WMO's Greenhouse Gas Bulletin reveals that concentrations of key greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide are increasing. At this point, accurately calculating companies' carbon footprints and sharing this data will provide a solid foundation in the fight against climate change. Companies should implement sustainability strategies with a commitment to reduce their carbon footprint. Investing in climate-friendly technologies, increasing energy efficiency and implementing various measures to reduce carbon emissions are important steps to fulfill their corporate responsibilities.
