ISO 14068 – Carbon Neutrality

ISO 14068 - Carbon Neutrality

Carbon neutrality refers to balancing the amount of Greenhouse Gases emitted with an equivalent amount of Greenhouse Gases removed or offset from the atmosphere. This is accomplished through the following steps:

  • Measuring Emissions

    Quantifying the full range of carbon emissions from an organization’s activities, products, and operations.

  • Reducing Emissions

    Implementing effective strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through improved operational efficiencies, energy optimization, and adoption of cleaner technologies.

  • Offsetting Remaining Emissions

    Investing in credible projects, such as reforestation or renewable energy initiatives, that effectively remove or prevent an equivalent amount of greenhouse gases from being released into the atmosphere.

Achieving carbon neutrality not only underscores an organization’s commitment to sustainability but also helps in addressing the global climate crisis by minimizing its environmental impact.

What is ISO 14068?

ISO 14068 is the emerging global standard designed to guide organizations in achieving, maintaining, and effectively communicating their carbon neutrality status. This robust framework provides a structured approach for organizations to:
