Understanding and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions requires a clear and accurate picture of where emissions are generated and how they change over time. However, estimating GHG emissions is a complex and technical process, and methodological choices can significantly influence the results. This creates challenges for governments, businesses, and communities seeking to measure their carbon footprint, track progress towards emissions reduction goals, and identify effective mitigation strategies.
The TPE provides independent, evidence-based analysis of the challenges and opportunities for measuring GHG emissions in areas that impact Tasmania, including bushfire emissions, what Tasmania’s emissions profile looks like, and Australia’s ‘Full Carbon Accounting Model – FullCAM.
