This differs from product carbon footprints, where product category rules allow comparisons between equivalent products across their lifecycle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">A company\u2019s emissions depend on factors such as industry, size, operating model, production level, efficiency, geographic location, among many others.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Understanding impact levels usually begins with three steps:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Collect activity data (energy, fuels, logistics, materials and raw materials, waste, among others)<\/li>\n<li>Apply appropriate formulas and representative emission factors<\/li>\n<li class=\"translation-block\">Consolidate results expressed in CO\u2082 equivalents, since a carbon footprint is composed of different gases with varying global warming potentials. By applying these factors to each gas, emissions can be converted into a common unit: CO\u2082 equivalent.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Today, many companies use digital platforms to automate this process. Spreadsheets are often difficult for non-experts, lack integrated data traceability, are not always easy to understand, and do not support a systematic and structured process\u2014making them hard to scale in more complex organizations.<\/p>\n<p>What matters is not finding a perfect number from the beginning, but understanding where emissions are generated and, through an incremental process, improving results, setting targets, and reducing emissions with measurable actions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"No existe una respuesta \u00fanica.
