Title: Why should the topic of Carbon Footprint be discussed?


1
Why should the topic of Carbon Footprint be
discussed?
2
The carbon footprint represents the entire amount
of greenhouse gases (GG) that result from routine
economic and human activities. What each person
performs daily is the beginning of it all. When
it comes to taking action and establishing
projects to reduce an activity's carbon footprint
to the lowest possible level, which is expressed
in tonnes of CO2 emissions, knowledge of the
carbon footprint is crucial. What exactly is a
Carbon Footprint? The term "carbon footprint"
refers to the amount of greenhouse gases that
human activity leaves behind. Since 1990, carbon
dioxide has been the most prevalent and
significant contributor to global warming. This
environmental indicator analyses both direct and
indirect emissions of substances, including
methane (CH4), nitrogen oxide (N2O),
hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons
(PFCs), sulphur hexafluoride (SF6), and many
others (CO2). The World Footprint Network reports
that the carbon footprint has continued to
increase. It has multiplied eleven times since
1961, making up 60 of all human activity's
environmental impact. The current levels of
atmospheric CO2 are comparable to those of more
than three million years ago when sea levels were
10 to 20 metres higher than they are today, and
the earth's thermometer recorded a temperature
around 3C higher. The Carbon Footprint of
Companies Through manufacturing, transportation,
and energy use, businesses emit greenhouse gases
just like people do. Whether a company's
greenhouse gas emissions are direct and under its
direct control, the corporate footprint
calculates all these emissions and their
scope. In this aspect, businesses typically have
the choice to cut back on or offset their carbon
emissions. How? They can do this, among other
things, by increasing their energy efficiency,
using only energy that is 100 renewable,
launching awareness campaigns, contributing to
environmental causes, investing in green
initiatives, paying green taxes, and purchasing
tonnes of CO2 on the world emissions market.

The Carbon Footprint of a Product Before,
during, and after their useful lives, consumer
products and services continue to create
greenhouse gases. The process of procuring raw
materials, their processing, manufacture, and
distribution, as well as their usage and
transformation into waste that is either reused,
recycled, or dumped in a landfill, all contribute
to pollution. Events like concerts, plays, or
sporting competitions, among others, have a
substantial carbon footprint because of things
like transportation, energy use, garbage
production, etc. The Carbon Footprint Advisory
Services provided by Agile Advisors Agile
Advisors, a carbon footprint consultancy, is
working on "carbon footprint" projects to
determine their contributions to the global
warming issue, given the rising concern regarding
the effects of climate change and the role that
carbon emissions play as a contributing
component. Agile Advisors offers Carbon Footprint
Assessment services through information
gathering, computation, and analysis, as well as
Life Cycle Assessments (LCA), to measure the
carbon footprint in the manufacturing and
operation of the firm and to provide options for
lowering carbon emissions. Agile Advisors'
clients have access to carbon footprint
consulting services to help them reduce carbon
emissions as they work towards being net zero
carbon. The use of the protocol definitions for
carbon registers is possible for analysing one's
carbon footprint. We frequently urge focusing
more on calculating only direct emissions from
purchased energy and less on emissions through
the supplier chain, even though the breadth of
these criteria differs. On the other hand, there
are approaches for tracking total emissions
across the supply chain that can be used to
evaluate environmental life-cycle assessment
procedures. Past experiences show that carbon
emissions to produce products and services are
typically significantly underestimated, even when
estimating procedures are rigorously constructed.

Our customers have access to the carbon
footprint consulting services of Agile Advisors
as they strive towards net zero carbon, and they
can use them to assist them in lowering their
carbon emissions.
