Master Carbon Footprint Management for your sustainability journey
Our planet faces a critical challenge: climate change. Businesses play a significant role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and building a sustainable future. Carbon footprinting is a powerful tool to measure your environmental impact and guide your sustainability efforts.

This programme is designed for professionals working in organisations linked with Agriculture, Forestry or Other Land Use (AFOLU) and travel sector, who want to contribute to their organisation’s sustainability goals.
