Why is our seminar interesting for you:
In the context of increasing political demands and growing expectations of market economy actors on companies, more and more requirements are being placed on companies and organizations to calculate and reduce greenhouse gases.
- How do I create an effective and targeted carbon footprint and thus quantify greenhouse gas emissions?
- What steps do I need to take and how do they need to be documented?
- Which standards and norms have proven effective?
During the seminar, you will receive the necessary background knowledge for creating a carbon footprint and how to proceed efficiently.
Target group:
This seminar is aimed at companies and institutions that plan to calculate or are planning to calculate a carbon footprint in the near future. It is particularly well-suited as professional development for specialists and managers in environmental, energy, quality, and sustainability management, as well as controllers, production managers, and development managers.
Goal:
The aim of this seminar is not only to convey the content and process of an audit, but also to provide questions that can be used to assess energy and environmental performance as well as selected legal requirements. Sample audit questions for the topics of environment and energy will be developed, and the execution and preparation of the audit report will be explained using practical examples.
