Zusammenfassung englisch
The report highlights the close link between greenhouse gas accounting for organizations and products. It is primarily intended for experts in greenhouse gas accounting and members of relevant standards-setting bodies. Meaningful greenhouse gas inventories must, above all, clearly define the scope and objective of the inventory and disclose the accounting methods used. For selected methodological issues, the report demonstrates how greenhouse gas accounting for products and organizations can be made more consistent. To this end, methodologically sound proposals for revising the relevant accounting standards are developed.
