Since the late 1970s, global temperatures have risen and have been continuously above normal. Our economies are at peril from climate change. Investors, consumers, and regulators are quickly changing their economic viewpoints to follow more sustainable pathways. Organizations are made more complicated as a result, which affects their reputation, brand, and long-term profitability. Organizations must first assess the effect of their products to act ethically.
Product carbon footprint (PCF) is the total of a product's direct and indirect carbon emissions across its entire life cycle. During the stages of the production process, distribution, use, and disposal/recycling, each product emits a certain quantity of CO2 into the environment. By assessing PCF, investors, consumers, and regulators may better their investment/consumption/policy decisions using data.
The objective of this course is to introduce the concept of "Product Carbon Footprint" to senior management and executives, who will benefit from learning the fundamentals to calculate a product's lifecycle emissions, which is a crucial first step in creating sustainable products.
The following topics will be covered in the course:
• Defining product lifecycle's scope.
• Deciding which stages of the life cycle to include in your inventory.
• What separates a cradle-to-grave inventory from a cradle-to-gate inventory?
• Gathering data, evaluating its quality, and preparing credible reports
• Case studies and Exercises
In this course, students will learn how to the process for undertaking a Product Carbon Footprint, Understanding various international PCF Standard (ISO 14067), Defining Boundaries for Product Carbon Footprint Quantification, Preparing report and for 3rd party verification Additionally, the workshop will guide participants through the verification procedure and help them get ready for upcoming verifications.
