INTRODUCTION
The truth about Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol is that it provides standards, guidance, tools and training for businesses and governments to measure and manage climate-warming emissions. GHG Protocol supplies the world’s most widely used greenhouse gas accounting standards. The Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard provides the accounting platform for virtually every corporate GHG reporting program worldwide.
