Results from the survey on climate declarations

In 2008 GEDnet conducted a survey on the concept of climate declarations. The main objective was to get feed-back on the suggested concept of climate declarations and collect information on improvements and modification to better adjust and further develop climate declarations to better suit various information needs for different audiences.

The result from the questionnaire has been analysed and below are some of the suggested improvements:

  • Emissions of different greenhouse gasses during the different stages in the lifecycle should be presented
  • It should be possible to separately report emissions from both fossile and biogenic sources
  • It should be possible to account for carbon offset programs

The suggested improvements will be implemented in new guidelines for climate declarations.
