Available to book: Public classroom HK$4400 Book your place

This 2-day course revisits some of the key concepts, principles and practices, of organizational GHG emissions and removals quantification and reporting, outlined in ISO 14064-1; and summarizes related requirements for carbon footprinting of products, provided by ISO 14067. This refresh then provides the foundation required to know and understand the key principles and requirements for demonstrating carbon neutrality, following a hierarchy on a pathway to Net Zero, outlined by ISO 14068-1. The course aims to explain how the pathway is used in developing a carbon neutrality management plan (logistics-specific ), the methodologies used for carbon footprint quantification, use of offset, and provides clear guidance for those responsible for the achievement of carbon neutrality in logistics operations.
