The LIFE Clim’Foot project aims are to develop public policies to help organisations calculate and reduce their carbon footprint.

More specifically, the project goals are:

  • to launch a dynamic European network for carbon accounting;
  • to train end-users and give them the tools for calculating and reducing the carbon footprint of organisations;
  • to develop tools (training, database) customised to each country;
  • to involve local actors (decision-makers, investors, public bodies) in reducing emissions.

The long-term objective is to set up a European carbon accounting resources centre, which will make the databases of different countries widely available. This deliverable constitutes a small revolution in the world of carbon accounting, and a significant technical and methodological advance for emissions reduction.
