EUDR Readiness Is Not the Responsibility of One Department
Can your company trace commodities back to their production locations? The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) is a European Union regulation that sets requirements for placing certain products on the market and exporting them. These products must meet deforestation-free and production legality requirements. For companies supplying commodities to the European market, the challenge goes beyond identifying […]
ISO 14064-1 GHG Verification: Why Is It Important for the Manufacturing Industry?
Price, quality, and delivery reliability are no longer the only considerations for industrial buyers. Carbon emissions data is becoming increasingly important. Manufacturing suppliers may be asked to provide credible emissions data to meet customer requirements and global supply chain expectations. ISO 14064-1 helps organizations develop a greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory systematically. Independent verification can improve […]
Organizational GHG Verification under ISO 14064-1: Why It Matters for the Mining Industry
GHG verification for mining based on ISO 14064-1 helps mining companies improve the credibility of their emissions data. Mining operations rarely stop. Excavators remove overburden, haul trucks transport materials, and processing facilities continue to operate. All these activities generate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Today, investors, regulators, and buyers ask more than just, “How much do […]
Emissions Limits Have Been Set. So, Who Checks the Numbers?
Imagine receiving a document that clearly states how much carbon your power plant is allowed to emit this year. You also know that an independent party will check whether your plant has stayed within that limit. For Indonesia’s coal-fired power plants, this is not just a hypothetical scenario. Since February 2023, the rules have been […]
Emissions Down 30%: Climate Achievement or Just a Number in a Report?
In a low-carbon business environment, emissions figures can build trust. However, these claims need credible data and verifiable evidence. When Green Claims Become a Reputation Gamble Imagine two companies announcing that they have successfully reduced their emissions. Both have climate targets and sustainability reports. However, only one can demonstrate consistent data, clear calculation methods, and […]

ISCC PLUS: Enabling Sustainable and Circular Material Supply Chains
The transition toward a more sustainable economy is changing how companies source, process, manufacture, and market raw materials. For industries such as chemicals, plastics, packaging, textiles, personal care, and consumer goods, companies are increasingly adopting bio-based, recycled, circular, and other alternative feedstocks. At the same time, they need to maintain traceability and support credible sustainability […]
ISCC CORSIA: Understanding Sustainable Aviation Fuel Certification for International Aviation
Supporting Sustainability, Traceability, and Lifecycle GHG Assurance Across the CORSIA Eligible Fuel Supply Chain The aviation industry faces growing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions while maintaining reliable international connectivity. Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is one option for reducing aviation’s lifecycle emissions. However, demonstrating sustainability requires more than identifying a fuel as renewable. Organizations […]
DRAM and LCAM: From Mitigation Action Planning to Verified Emission Reductions
Taking climate change mitigation action involves more than simply stating that a project can reduce emissions. Companies need to answer two important questions: what will be done to reduce emissions, and how much emission reduction has actually been achieved once the project is implemented? Under Indonesia’s Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Certification Scheme (SPEI), two key […]
ISO 14064-2: Measuring Emission Reductions from Mitigation Actions
After an organization knows how much GHG emissions it generates, the next question is: “How much emissions have we successfully reduced through an action or project?” This question takes us from emissions management at the organizational level to managing emission reductions at the project or mitigation action level. This is where ISO 14064-2 plays an […]
