Introduction Blockchain technology has emerged as a transformative tool in addressing the complexities of carbon emissions mapping, particularly for SMEs in Africa. This blog explores how blockchain revolutionizes emissions data mapping, the advantages it offers in regulatory compliance and reporting, and the industries that benefit the most. Furthermore, we discuss
Introduction: Understanding Carbon Emissions The global climate challenge has spotlighted greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, which are largely driven by energy use. GHGs, including carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O), trap heat in the atmosphere, causing global warming. Carbon emissions auditing, or carbon accounting, is quantifying emissions, enabling
Kenya is collaborating with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to develop a carbon pricing policy as part of its climate and economic reform agenda. This initiative aligns with Kenya’s commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and aims to position the country as a leader in climate action within Africa.
Introduction Transition planning is becoming critical for companies worldwide as industries aim to shift toward low-carbon economies. African businesses, particularly SMEs, are increasingly being drawn into this journey due to regulatory frameworks that require larger companies to report on emissions from their supply chains. SMEs supplying these larger companies must
