Greenhouse Gasses and the Accountancy Profession

Greenhouse Gasses and the Accountancy Profession

FEE’s Sustainability Working Party have produced a new fact sheet explaining the implications for the accountancy profession of the Kyoto Protocol (under which industrialised countries agreed to reduce the combined emission of greenhouse gasses by at least 5%).

The protocol proposes three market mechanisms (financial instruments) designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The accountancy profession’s reporting expertise will be necessary for the successful adoption of the protocol.

The publication is available in electronic format only.
