What is a CO2-eq baseline?
A baseline establishes a baseline for your company's current climate footprint in CO2 equivalents (CO2-eq). This metric calculation converts all greenhouse gas emissions into a common unit based on their global warming potential, allowing for effective comparison and prioritization of focus areas.
Why is it so important?
A CO2-eq baseline is crucial for a company's data management and climate efforts. It provides a clear starting point and is essential for identifying areas where efforts to reduce the climate footprint can have the greatest impact. By creating clarity and organizing data, a baseline makes it easier to make informed decisions and prioritize focus areas while identifying data gaps and inconsistencies.
