The Council and the Hong Kong Accreditation Service co-organised the Seminar on Greenhouse Gas Validation and Verification. (Programme)
Climate change is doubtlessly an enormous challenge faced by mankind of our time. To tackle climate change, many places around the world are implementing various initiatives to limit Greenhouse Gas (GHG) concentrations in the atmosphere. These initiatives rely on the quantification, monitoring, reporting, validation and verification of GHG emissions and/or removals.
