Programme pillar 02
One consistent method across members, anchored to the GLEC Framework and ISO 14083.
One method, applied the same way across members, so a number calculated by one operator means the same thing as a number calculated by another, and holds up in a customer's assurance process.
Mandatory climate disclosure has made freight a priority category for listed and large entities. Their carriers now carry the reporting burden, and inconsistent method is what makes it expensive.
The other pillars
Training and plain-English guidance, so operators can measure and cut emissions without an in-house specialist.
03Chain-of-custody accounting, so a reduction can be issued by a carrier, transferred and claimed.
04Commissioned research into zero-emission technology, fuels and operating practice.
05One channel between the freight sector and policymakers across both countries.
