Das Heidelberg Center for the Environment (HCE) lädt Mitglieder, Forscher*innen und die interessierte Öffentlichkeit ein, in den interdisziplinären Austausch zu treten und über aktuelle Nachhaltigkeitsthemen zu diskutieren:
How can companies leverage their existing finance and controlling systems for carbon management?
This talk illustrates how internationally recognized accounting tools can be extended to include carbon data, enabling consistent, verifiable, and comparable reporting. This approach supports more strategic and effective decarbonization efforts.
