Carbon footprint measures the amount of greenhouse gases (GHG), especially carbon dioxide, that are emitted by a person, an organization, or an activity. It can be used to compare the environmental impact and to find ways to reduce it. There are different ways to calculate a carbon footprint, depending on what is being measured and how.
Some common methods are the Greenhouse Gas Protocol for organizations, which are consumption-based GHG emissions accounting for countries.
