About us
We set the standards to measure and manage emissions. The Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol) establishes comprehensive global standardized frameworks to measure and manage greenhouse gas emissions from private and public sector operations, value chains and mitigation actions. Our standards, guidance, tools and training help business and government become more efficient, resilient and prosperous. GHG Protocol builds on a 20-year partnership between World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD).

As of August 13, 2024 the Built on GHG Protocol review service is officially closed, and we will no longer be accepting applications. This is necessary to better align our supporting services to the needs of the users of GHG Protocol standards and guidance. A new suite of services is expected in 2025 that will professionalize and mature our services to better serve the needs of our users. Learn more: https://bit.ly/3yCtw9w

One of the key topics that will be addressed in GHG Protocol's upcoming Land Sector and Removals standard and guidance will be separate accounting and reporting of CO2 removals from GHG emissions. Prepare for the publication by reading World Resources Institute's technical perspective on separate climate targets to understand how emissions reductions and removals can be be balanced to ensure carbon removal doesn't detract from emissions reductions.
Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) will be key to counterbalancing “residual emissions” from sources that are challenging to abate to achieve net zero and ultimately a net-negative future. However, the “net” in “net zero” can obscure very different levels of CDR and emissions reductions that can be used to reach net zero. Planning for high levels of CDR can be risky because of high costs, non-climate impacts, and uncertainty around technology development. Setting separate targets for carbon removal and emissions reductions can provide transparency around the level and role of CDR in meeting targets, and is a first step to avoiding over-reliance on CDR. Read how countries can set stronger, transparent separate targets for emissions reduction and carbon removal in the long-term strategies and nationally determined contributions they submit to the UNFCCC: https://bit.ly/3YHNiet #CarbonRemoval #CarbonDioxideRemoval #CDR #NetZero #SeparateTargets
