Our approach will have the following steps towards Cabon Footprint Calc / GHG Accounting.

1. Set the Base: Form an ECO Team
   • Assemble key team members who will be involved in the project.
   • Educate them about GHG (Greenhouse Gas) accounting principles.
2. Definition: Project Objective, Scope, and Expected Outcome
   • Clearly define the project’s objective related to GHG emissions.
   • Specify the scope (e.g., entire print production process) and expected outcomes.
   • Determine the unit of measurement (e.g., CO2 equivalent).
3. Identify Resources: Literature Review
   • Conduct a literature review to identify sources of GHG emissions in print production.
   • Understand how GHG emissions are measured and reported.
4. Scopes and Categories: Map the Boundaries
   • Identify the different scopes (Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3) of emissions.
   • Categorize resources (e.g., energy use, raw materials, transportation) within these scopes.
5. Data Collection: Raw Material Extraction, Manufacturing & Distribution
   • Define data collection methods for each resource category.
   • Collect data on raw material extraction, manufacturing processes, and distribution.
6. Data Validation: Accuracy Check
   • Filter and sort collected data according to categories.
   • Validate the accuracy of the data to ensure reliability.
7. Analyze and Calculate Carbon Footprint
   • Analyze the data to calculate the carbon footprint of print production units.
   • Use appropriate emission factors and conversion formulas.
8. Benchmark & Recommendations
   • Compare the calculated carbon footprint with industry benchmarks.
   • Provide detailed observations and recommendations for reducing emissions.
