Improving climate emissions accounting to accelerate the circular economy transition

Year Published

This insights paper posits that certain climate emissions accounting methodologies such as the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol) provide valuable data, but they do not currently reflect the impact of the circular economy in a fair and accurate way — in fact, some methodologies actually disincentivise circular economy activities. This paper proposes revisions to the GHG Protocol’s methodology in order to address this, ensuring companies that are leading the transition to a circular economy — by implementing and scaling circular economy solutions that tackle climate change and other global challenges — see their successes reflected when they measure and report on their climate emissions.
