How The Climate Registry’s Carbon Footprint Calculator Works

Almost every facility operating emits greenhouse gas. To encourage enterprises to curtail greenhouse gas emissions, a carbon footprint calculator from The Climate Registry helps to pinpoint how to reduce carbon emissions. This calculator helps companies acknowledge greenhouse gas emissions and implement some measures which can help reduce such, setting benchmarks to track progress.

Membership in The Climate Registry is voluntary, however most North American states, provinces, territories and native sovereign nations are taking part in the effort to reduce carbon emissions.
