Icarb : The Initiative For Carbon Accounting

The Initiative for Carbon Accounting (ICARB) is a group of academics, policy makers and professionals working to create a set of transparent, consistent and accurate rules for carbon accounting. We exist to advance the field of carbon accounting to facilitate the reductions in carbon emissions necessary for a sustainable society. Our Aims: 1. Provide a robust and transparent process that will develop, verify, validate, assist and promote recognised carbon accounting ‘rules' and guidance across sectors. 2. Provide services that facilitate consensus building and knowledge exchange between academics, policy and decision makers, professionals and community groups. 3. Disseminate and promote guidance on best practice and provide a direct route to advice and support for policy and decision makers in Scotland and around the world. We work across sectors and scales, in collaboration with other carbon accounting organisations, and seek to become recognised as the trusted organisation for carbon accounting in Scotland. Our supporters: ICARB's core work is supported by the Edinburgh Centre for Carbon Innovation, Heriot-Watt University, the Crighton Carbon Centre and Glasgow Caledonian University. We are funded by the Scottish Government and private sponsorship.
