NEW YORK, Oct 21 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) — Carbon Measures, a new global coalition representing major businesses from diverse industries and geographies, launched today to establish a more accurate carbon accounting framework and drive market-based solutions to reduce emissions at the lowest cost.
The coalition’s work will leverage sound science and the principles of financial accounting to help enable a ledger-based carbon accounting framework that is substantially more accurate, eliminates double counting and addresses current information gaps. By better tracking emissions through the global economy, this new framework will help businesses differentiate their products and governments make more informed policy decisions.
