Carbon footprinting can be a frustrating, expensive and time-consuming exercise.Reams of data need to be gathered, captured and properly manipulated from all areas of an organisation.
Often this data is not audited and often it is inaccurate or incomplete.
This is only the beginning.Consultants have to be relied on to provide updated emission figures and to guide you through the footprinting exercise.This can be costly and again, time consuming.
