EU ETS: what you need to know about the EU carbon market
In this article, we'll explore the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS), a European initiative for reducing greenhouse gases through a cap-and-trade scheme.
The Spend-Based Method is one of the two approaches to carbon accounting, which works by taking the monetary value of a purchased good or service and then multiplying this value by a relative carbon emission factor in order to calculate the amount of greenhouse gas emissions produced. This is considered the more simple way to calculate carbon emissions, but is not as precise as the activity based model.
