Greenhouse gasses and global warming.

We have all heard allot about these topics lately. It seems that you hear about greenhouse gasses and global warming whenever you turn on the news, open a newspaper or a magazine, listen to a radio talk show, or watch a State of the Union address. Obviously, this has become an extremely popular topic. Fueling the in-depth media coverage of this topic are several events. A Democratic-controlled congress, the release of a report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) stating that human activity is “very likely” the cause of global warming in recent decades, key executives of large-cap publicly traded companies lobbying the federal government to regulate greenhouse gas emissions, and the upcoming presidential election are just a few of the events that are bringing this issue to the forefront of the national and global conscience.

From a regulatory perspective, what does all this mean for companies in the United States? At this point, nobody knows with 100% certainty. But the signs are certainly pointing to the fact that greenhouse gasses will be regulated on a state and/or federal level in the near future.

Are you prepared for possible greenhouse gas regulations?

Several U.S. companies are already working to address possible greenhouse gas regulations. These companies have established CO2 baselines and set greenhouse gas reduction goals. They are also registering their greenhouse gas emissions with state and/or federal registries. These companies are now able to effectively answer questions from stakeholders regarding what they are doing to address global warming and greenhouse gasses. In addition, these proactive companies are acting as environmental stewards and boosting their public image.

This ensures everyone is on the same page at the beginning of the project. Next, we prepare a baseline greenhouse gas emission inventory. This inventory will let you know your current greenhouse gas emissions and give you a baseline to measure future greenhouse gas reductions against. Then JCA will develop a system to track and report greenhouse gas emissions data. Finally, JCA works with you to develop a greenhouse gas emissions management strategy including reduction strategies.
