What is carbon accounting?
Carbon accounting refers to the discipline of measurement and accounting techniques that serve to measure the carbon footprint of an organization or individual, and the trading of carbon credits or offsetting techniques involved in this domain.

Scientific institutions provide an international regulatory framework for all organizations to be measured under the same standards, such as:
- IPCC
- SBTIs
- ISO 14064
