GHG protocol

In 1998, the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) and the World Resources Institutes (WRI) developed, in partnership with companies, NGOs and State representatives, the GHG Protocol: "A Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard".

This protocol, extensively disseminated internationally, served as the basis for drafting ISO 14064-1:2006.

In October 2011, the GHG Protocol was supplemented by the "Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Accounting and Reporting Standard", which details in particular the potential indirect GHG emission categories for an organization.

Since July 2014, a method dedicated to Territories has been made available: the Global Protocol for Community-scale GHG emissions.
