Global climate change
background
The phenomena of Global Warming and its possible influence
on the worlds climate is omnipresent in media around the world
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the identified greenhouse gases
and considered to be the main contributor to global warming
( CO2 measured in carbon footprint )
Meanwhile politicians continue discussing causes and
consequences of CO2 emission, various enterprises have set-up
teams to develop strategies for potential CO2 emission reduction
programs
Various textile retailer/brands start analyzing their organizational
impact on global warming and defined reduction targets

Carbon Footprint Definition
Quantitative measure of the impact human activities have on Global Warming
in terms of the amount of green house gases produced
Carbon footprint is
Measured in kg CO2
Directly related emissions from energy use of fossil fuels
Assessed over the lifecycle of a operation, service or product
Carbon footprint is attributable to:
