A successful carbon management is the key to mitigating excessive CO2 emissions, which have become the prime culprit for causing damages to our Green Planet and the life forms sustained on it. As a common denominator, shared by all life forms, plant and animal; carbon is important for us but in gaseous form it is one of the six Green House Gases (GHG'S) considered responsible for Global warming. Carbon dioxide gas (CO2), which is released into the atmosphere by the burning of fossil fuels such as wood, coal, oil and natural gas, traps heat radiation that is attempting to escape from Earth and the result is increasing "Global Warming".
The impact of global warming, which is already being felt, is expected to intensify in the years ahead if no measures are taken to control the increasing concentrations of CO2 in the environment. However individual action is essential if we want to avoid climate chaos, businesses can do wonders if take active part towards this direction.
A well structured carbon management program can achieve success without doubt, but active government and corporate support is absolutely necessary. Businesses and governments alike have to realize the importance of reducing greenhouse gas emissions to curtail global warming trends.Reduction of carbon emissions is not only vital to avoid a catastrophe that devastates large parts of the world, but it is a prerequisite for a sustainable economy. Carbon management has become a business necessity and many businesses have realized that it can provide financial benefits as well. Corporate carbon management is based on the implementation of a thorough and transparent organization-wide process to measure greenhouse gas emissions, identify and implement actions to reduce internal emissions and uses offsets to compensate for unavoidable emissions.
Active part of every individual is essential because when it comes to global warming, every little counts and a small step taken today can safe our planet for the generations to come.Being a carbon neutral is a good feeling which also makes people happy knowing that they have taken their responsibility for their consequences that could affect other life forms on the earth. A responsible business denotes a responsible nation and a responsible nation denotes growth for all. Corporate carbon management is an innovative practice which is not only beneficial for the businesses applying them but also for their customers, business partners and on a whole for everyone. In addition to providing sustainable environmental benefits by reducing pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions, carbon neutral business always results in bottom line savings in operating costs from increased efficiency of energy use.
