Managing GHG emissions and accelerating decarbonization are essential for corporations to comply with regulations, meet stakeholder expectations, and address the global climate challenge.
In recent years, GHG emissions measurement and reporting have shifted from voluntary to mandatory, with many new requirements for companies to report and reduce their GHG emissions. While many companies, especially RBA members, have already established greenhouse gas accounting and energy management programs, opportunities still remain to enhance best practices and improve emissions measurement, reporting, and reduction.
Effective management of GHG emissions strengthens corporate resilience by helping companies understand and adapt to the physical risks of climate change, while mitigating regulatory and reputational risks as well. Through industry-driven tools, best practice sharing, and stakeholder engagement, the RBA enables companies to enhance their GHG management efforts, drive meaningful progress toward decarbonization, and contribute to more sustainable and responsible global supply chains.
RBA Emissions Management Tool
The RBA's Emissions Management Tool (EMT) is an online greenhouse gas quantification and reporting platform that can be used to support emissions calculations and increase ESG transparency, maturity, and data availability. The EMT supports RBA members’ GHG emission calculations, advances member and supplier sustainability efforts, and provides supply chain emission metrics for reporting purposes. Learn more.
Trainings and Learning Resources
The RBA provides several environmental trainings though the e-Learning Academy that focus on meeting RBA Code of Conduct requirements and strengthening programmatic capabilities. Environmental trainings include a Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Management Learning Pathway that provides a foundational overview of materials through a seven-chapter technical guide and a complementary video series.
