GHG Accounting Services services

What is considered “green” or not has always had, and will always have, different meanings depending on a particular point of view as well as the point in time. At the beginning of the green movement, issues such as forest conservation, protection of wildlife and recycling were the focal points. However this has evolved to encompass more comprehensive strategies which we now understand are required to enable meaningful change. These strategies include more holistic approaches to sustainability, biodiversity and climate change. One of the most interesting things in recent years has been the realisation that these strategies make good business sense and result in positive impacts. Examples of these positive impacts include better yields due to crop diversity, lower energy costs due to energy savings, and lower risks and costs associated with having a smaller carbon footprint.

The most drastic one would be to simply make the emission of GHGs illegal. This is an extreme example, one that would not be a viable option in an economy based on industrial growth. A more viable options that have been implemented by some, and considered by others, to bring about GHG reductions are market mechanisms.
