Reducing your carbon footprint starts with knowing where you stand. In this session, you'll gain a clear understanding of how to measure, report, and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions — and set a credible path toward Net Zero.

We’ll begin with the basics of emissions accounting, helping you identify and categorize your Scope 1 (direct), Scope 2 (indirect from energy), and Scope 3 (value chain) emissions. You’ll learn how to build a reliable GHG inventory, select appropriate emission factors, and apply proven accounting methodologies in line with the GHG Protocol.

Based on your sector, size, and goals, we’ll also explore:

  • Sector-specific tools and platforms (e.g., Excel-based models, SimaPro, or GHG calculators)
  • How to set realistic and science-aligned Net Zero targets
  • Alignment with global frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), CDP, or TCFD
  • Low-cost, high-impact decarbonisation strategies tailored to your operations
  • Best practices for public disclosure, investor communication, or audit readiness

You'll leave this session with:

  • A structured understanding of your carbon accounting boundaries and scope
  • A draft GHG reduction or Net Zero roadmap with milestones
  • Awareness of reporting obligations, frameworks, and funding-linked expectations
  • Confidence to lead internal discussions or guide clients on climate action planning

This session is ideal for:

  • Businesses initiating their Net Zero or ESG journey
  • Consultants building carbon advisory expertise
  • Operations or sustainability teams preparing for audits, disclosures, or investor dialogue

Let’s quantify your emissions and transform climate ambition into actionable strategy.
